The Tobago People’s Party (TPP) says a comparison between former PNM autonomy bills and the constitutional arrangement in St Kitts and Nevis is “fundamentally flawed.”
The TPP issued a media release responding to comments from PNM MP Camille Robinson-Regis. Robinson-Regis had questioned Chief Secretary Farley Augustine’s visit to St Kitts and Nevis with Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, suggesting the visit was a “revision” of history because Augustine had previously rejected the St Kitts/Nevis model during Joint Select Committee considerations.
The TPP stated that Nevis governs itself under constitutionally protected authority, whereas under the PNM proposals, “Tobago would still have been governed from Port of Spain.”
