FORMER People’s National Movement (PNM) mayor of Point Fortin, Abdon Mason, has made a stirring appeal for all 41 MPs to put aside partisan interests and work together in the best interest of the nation on the proposed stand-your-ground legislation.

Mason was among those contributing to a public consultation on the proposed law, held at the Point Fortin Borough Corporation on October 7.

He thanked Point Fortin MP and Minister in the Ministry of Energy, Ernesto Kesar, for hosting the session but stopped short of declaring his outright support for the bill.
