The NGO, Citizens Against Noise Pollution of TT (CANPTT), has expressed full support for Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar and her government's recent decision to restrict the use of certain national venues for "high-intensity leisure events."

A statement from CANPTT on December 4 welcomed the measures, which it said are aimed at protecting the health and well-being of citizens, particularly the sick, the elderly, infants, students, and residential communities.

The NGO described it as both timely and necessary.
