The Office of the Minority Leader has expressed concern over "troubling contradictions" in recent statements by THA Secretary of Finance, Councillor Petal-Ann Roberts.
On June 9, Roberts expressed hope that good relations with central government would augur well following the THA's 2025-2026 budget request on June 23. Roberts said she met Minister of Finance Davendranath Tancoo and noted the spirit of mutual respect and co-operation.
But in a press release on June 13, the Minority said Roberts was shifting the narrative to one of optimism, which stands in stark contrast to her previous declarations of despair when PNM was in power.
