FINANCE Minister Colm Imbert said his ministry is investigating reports that people in Tobago may be asking for compensation for lands they are occupying, in relation to the expansion of the ANR Robinson International Airport in Crown Point, which they may not be entitled to. Imbert said the matter is not simple and it may require a final determination by a court of law.
At a virtual news conference hosted by his ministry on Monday, Imbert said $180 million have already been paid out for acquisition of lands for the project. But Imbert acknowledged the process, particularly in section D of the project, has been complicated.
