Chief Sec­re­tary Far­ley Au­gus­tine says the new gov­ern­ment has made a strong start in its first 100 days in of­fice since the April 28 Gen­er­al Elec­tion.

Speak­ing to the me­dia, he praised Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar for be­ing more con­fi­dent and as­sertive this time around.

“I think we have a gov­ern­ment that seems in­sis­tent on de­liv­er­ing on what they have promised,” Au­gus­tine said. “We have a sense of as­sertive­ness from the Prime Min­is­ter that we did not get the first time around… very con­fi­dent in the steps that they are tak­ing.”
