For­mer chair­man of Stud­ley Park En­ter­prise Ltd (SPEL), David Walk­er, says the To­ba­go quar­ry has the ca­pac­i­ty to meet the de­mands of both lo­cal and in­ter­na­tion­al mar­kets, pro­vid­ed the right equip­ment is pro­cured.

His com­ments come af­ter Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar grant­ed the To­ba­go House of As­sem­bly (THA) an ex­port li­cence for the quar­ry on Tues­day dur­ing her of­fi­cial vis­it to the is­land. She de­scribed it as one of sev­er­al “gifts” to help the THA earn its own rev­enue and re­duce its de­pen­dence on the Cen­tral Gov­ern­ment.
