One month after the Tobago House of Assembly Legislature passed a motion to endorse the Tobago Marine Parks Bill, 2026, the legislation has now advanced to the Chief Parliamentary Council.
Speaking to the media during a Hurricane Preparedness Workshop hosted by the Tobago Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) and key stakeholders, THA Chief Secretary Farley Augustine expressed optimism that the Bill will soon reach Parliament.
“It goes to the Chief Parliamentary Council as all other Bills, as you would imagine. So not just this one, any Bill that goes to the Parliament, including what originates at the Cabinet, also goes through the CPC before it makes its way to the Parliament, so I suspect within a week or so it would be tabled.”
