The State has been ordered to pay almost $400,000 in compensation to a car rental company following a move to terminate its contractual agreement to provide vehicles for the now-defunct Unemployment Relief Programme (URP).
High Court Judge Westmin James ordered the compensation for Double R Auto Rentals after upholding its case against the Office of the Attorney General earlier this month.
The lawsuit related to the company’s commercial relationship with the Ministry of Works, which began in 2017.
