Minister of Defence Wayne Sturge says the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) programme has not been shut down.

He yesterday assured young people that the Government recognises the value of the initiative and that they have “nothing to worry about.”

His clarification came after reports circulated that 72 of the programme’s 114 employees will have their contracts ended on July 31.
