Chief Secretary Farley Augustine says there will be no early election for the Tobago House of Assembly unless his team agrees and supports it.

He explained that unlike the central government, the THA has a fixed term and cannot just call a snap election without going through a legal process.

“The truth is, unlike the central government, the Chief Secretary cannot just call an election,” Augustine said.
