Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC) Al­der­man Vil­liana Ra­moutars­ingh clashed with San Fer­nan­do May­or Robert Par­ris yes­ter­day af­ter she was blocked from rais­ing a se­ries of ques­tions at a statu­to­ry meet­ing, prompt­ing a pub­lic con­fronta­tion over fi­nan­cial trans­paren­cy, mar­ket con­di­tions and the treat­ment of ca­su­al work­ers.

Ra­moutars­ingh said she at­tempt­ed to raise the mat­ters dur­ing the meet­ing but was shut down by Par­ris, who ruled that it was “not the ap­pro­pri­ate fo­rum.”
