TWO new large-scale non-intrusive inspection (NII) mobile scanners were commissioned at the Port of Port of Spain on February 25, with two more set to be unveiled at Point Lisas in the coming days.
The new Customs and Excise Division scanners are expected to enhance national security, improve business efficiency and save taxpayers money by increasing the percentage of containers inspected from about 25 per cent to 75 per cent.
The four scanners cost US$12.9 million ($87 million).
