Eye on criminal deportees

In making this comment on Friday in the House of Representatives, Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley said Government would be willinng to review the subvention given to groups such as Vision on Mission that play an invaluable role in, “maintaining national security.” Rowley said there is a difference between deportees and TT nationals who return home from the US on their own volition. He explained the former are subject to the US judicial process and, “protocols have been in place prior to the arrival of (US President elect) Donald Trump” to deal with them. On the latter, Rowley said they are, “free to come and go as they wish.” During a People’s National Movement (PNM) walkabout in St Joseph on Monday, Rowley said Government is keeping “a very close eye” on Trump’s statement that he plans to deport some three million undocumented immigrants from the US, after he assumes office in January.
