The State has been ordered to pay over $300,000 in compensation to a private vehicle inspector from Chaguanas for a decision by a former transport commissioner to stop him from operating.
Delivering a judgment late last year, High Court Judge Westmin James ordered the compensation as he upheld a lawsuit brought by James Nancoo.
According to the evidence in the case, in late 2018, Nancoo obtained a vehicle examiner’s certificate and his business, A2Z Auto Repairs Centre Ltd, was approved as a vehicle testing station.
