DAVID LEE, shadow spokesman on energy and former Pointe-a-Pierre MP, wants to know how much the Government has already spent on the Dragon deal and whether it now owes any penalties to the Venezuelan Government after the US Government put brakes on the deal.

Lee held a briefing with shadow spokesman on finance and former Oropouche West MP Davendranath Tancoo at the UNC headquarters in Chaguanas on April 9.

This came the day after Prime Minister Stuart Young held a briefing to announce that the US Government had withdrawn special licences issued by the US Treasury's Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) that would have allowed TT to monetise gas from the Dragon field and the Cocuina part of the Manakin-Cocuina cross-border field which both lie in Venezuelan waters.
