AGRICULTURE Minister Clarence Rambharat on Saturday described Couva South MP Rudranath Indarsingh as being completely out of touch with reality when the Opposition MP claimed Government was trying to take away lands offered to former Caroni (1975) Ltd workers when the company closed in 2003.
Responding to a statement issued earlier by Indarsingh, Rambharat said, The issue is not the rights of the former (Caroni 1975 Ltd) workers to the state-owned land under the 2003 VSEP (voluntary separation of employment packages).

ENERGY Minister Franklin Khan has spoken of plans to revitalise Lake Asphalt (LATT) even as workers and their union called on government to state its position on the La Brea company.
As the jobs of some 300 asphalt employees hang in the balance, the head of their union wants to know, “What did the workers do wrong to have this death sentence hanging over their heads?”
Joseph Phillip, president general of the Contractors and General Workers Trade Union (CGWTU), said the research and development department has remained dormant, as the board and managers have failed to engage in any innovative exercises. He said the market has been in a slump because there are no new products to sell.
