Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar was forced to work from home on what would have been her first official day in office yesterday, due to what Minister in the Office of the Prime Minister Barry Padarath says is the “dysfunctional” and unfit state of Whitehall in Port-of-Spain.
Speaking with Guardian Media outside Whitehall yesterday, Padarath expressed concern over the physical conditions of the building.
“This facility is not a functional facility. There are challenges here. The permanent secretary just shared with us that there are parts of the building that cannot be used because there is a lot of flooding, there are health issues with respect to mould,” Padarath said.
