A Lack of Self-Determination: Assemblyman Trevor James on Tobago’s Stalled Development

Scarborough, Tobago – June 6, 2024 – Assemblyman Trevor James, Secretary for the Division of Infrastructure, Quarries and Urban Development, asserts that a persistent lack of self-determination is holding back Tobago’s development.

Secretary James stated that almost everything done on the island is limited by the fact that Tobagonians do not have full control of their resources and remain heavily dependent on Trinidad. His comments underscore the ongoing debate about Tobago’s autonomy and its impact on the island’s ability to manage its own development trajectory and natural resources.
