Ramlogan renews call to abolish PSC after Privy Council decision

Click to view full size

THE Privy Council has restored a High Court declaration that the State had breached a prison officer’s constitutional right to the enjoyment of property by withholding her salary and benefits for 15 years after she was declared to have resigned.

In delivering the Board’s oral judgment on Monday, just minutes after the completion of submissions, Lord Leggatt described the handling of Favianna Gajadhar’s case as “a sorry history which regrettably does no credit to the Public Service Commission (PSC) of Trinidad and Tobago”.

Also on the panel were Lords Sales, Lloyd-Jones, Snowden and Lady Simler.
