THA Minority Leader Kelvon Morris claims he has documentary evidence of irregularities in the procurement of ambulances for Tobago’s health sector.

“Mr Deputy Presiding Officer (Niall George), I wave in my hands a 20-page witness statement with over 18 points of documentary evidence to validate that there were, in fact, irregularities in the procurement of those not working, dysfunctional ambulances that is a shame and a stain on this current administration,” he said during a sitting in the Assembly Legislature, Scarborough, on November 6.

Morris was presenting a private motion calling on Chief Secretary Farley Augustine to acknowledge that the rejection of the 6.8 per cent budget allocation that the former PNM government had offered in the Tobago autonomy bills was detrimental to the island’s economic development and social well-being.
