Some 92 young people are to gain real-world work experience in public service from Monday when they join an internship programme by the Ministry of Home Affairs and Information and the Office of the Attorney General.

At a press briefing on Friday at the Barbados Postal Service to welcome the interns into the Summer Internship Programme, Minister of Home Affairs and Information Gregory Nicholls said he was encouraged to continue the programme started by former home affairs minister Wilfred Abrahams, who is now the attorney general.
