PRIME MINISTER Kamla Persad-Bissessar has announced a series of measures to fast-track the process through which Tobagonians can get deeds to their properties.

In her address to members of the Tobago House of Assembly (THA) at a special sitting on November 4, Persad-Bissessar acknowledged the issue of land titles on the island has been a long-standing one.

“You see that hardship that is being experienced here in Tobago, where people are unable to provide proof of ownership of property, held in their families for decades, has had the attention of successive administrations,” she said.
