The Chief Secretary has formally requested full details on the radar system being installed at the ANR Robinson International Airport.
He has also asked for a dedicated meeting with Cabinet ministers and state agencies to explain the scope and purpose of the project, after confirming he was not briefed before the Prime Minister disclosed it publicly.
In a statement on Friday, the Office of the Chief Secretary said United States personnel have already begun work on a radar installation intended to “enhance surveillance capability,” but noted that Farley Augustine became aware of the development only after completing a live interview on Thursday night. The release said he learnt of the matter “only after” the Prime Minister announced it.
