The Point Lisas Industrial Port Development Corporation Limited (PLIPDECO) and the Port of Port of Spain will soon receive scanners.
This is according to Minister of Works and Infrastructure Jearlean John, who said the former Comptroller of Customs had raised concerns about illegal guns and drugs entering the country through legitimate ports due to a lack of scanners.
She said the Comptroller had reduced the number of containers being examined daily from 150 to 60, citing security concerns, which she said disrupted businesses.
