On June 30, a final court order will be made in the Industrial Court hearing between Advocate Trade Union and the Tobago House of Assembly (THA).

Newsday obtained a copy of the court ruling delivered on April 30, which found the 13 THA terminations were harsh, oppressive and contrary to the principles and practices of good industrial relations.

According to the document, some of the 13 workers had been employed with the Assembly’s Community Partnership Unit (CPU) since 2009, but on March 31, 2022, they were all called into a meeting and handed dismissal letters.
