She presented reports from the Fire Service, the police and also from the Princes Town Regional Corporation regarding her house.

“I visited the office of the MP for Princes Town, Barry Padarath and he told me that eh will help, but after six months I did not get any help whatsoever,” she said.

Padarath said his office arranged for her to meet with the Social Welfare Division of the Ministry to get assistance.

“As an opposition MP I have to make representation to the Ministry which I did,” Padarath said, adding that the Ministry has been slow in helping and he is at their mercy with respect to assistance.

He also said that an application was being made for Self Help to assist Deonanan but up to this time nothing has been forthcoming from the Ministry. He promised to raise this matter again on behalf of the constituent with the Ministry.

Deonanan said she is a domestic worker and her sons work with local builders in Princes Town.
