Cabinet in Tobago next week

Newsday also understands that on March 10, Government ministers will meet with their counterpart secretaries in the Assembly. The Magdalena Grand Hotel could be the venue for the Cabinet meeting and subsequent meetings between government ministers and THA secretaries. Some of the issues expected to be discussed in the meetings on March 10 include security, finance, tourism and agriculture.

After the PNM won the September 7, 2015 General Elections, Rowley told Newsday an arrangement was made for Cabinet to meet at least twice a year in Tobago.

The Prime Minister explained the rationale behind this was to foster closer ties between Central Government and the THA. Cabinet holds its first weekly meeting after Carnival, yesterday at the Diplomatic Centre in St Ann’s.
