THE National Petroleum Marketing Company Ltd (NP) on Wednesday responded to a claim from Petroleum Dealers Association (PDA) president Robin Narayansingh that it received a total of $600 million from Government through the Public Sector Investment Programme (PSIP) but did nothing to upgrade or maintain service stations.
In a statement, NP said it has received no PSIP funding since 2013.
The company said notwithstanding this, it has spent over $225 million of its own funds to maintain and upgrade the service station network throughout the country.
