Noise pollution is a nuisance.

This was the reason given by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar , on November 12, for her decision to put an immediate stop to all fetes at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, in Tarouba. In her announcement via social media, the PM said,

“I instructed that all fetes at the Brian Lara Stadium be stopped as the noise has become unbearable for residents. For far too long, the issue of noise pollution and its negative impact on communities has been ignored. My Government is committed to addressing this, as promised.”
