Give Tobago the money it deserves

Scarborough, Tobago – Days ahead of the national budget, Chief Secretary Farley Augustine is calling on the central government to address the historic underfunding of Tobago and to provide the island with a greater allocation.

He tabled a motion on this crucial issue during the 33rd sitting of the Assembly Legislature today, which marked the resumption of plenary sittings after the July-August break. Augustine’s motion highlights the need for a more equitable distribution of national funds to support Tobago’s development and address its ongoing resource challenges.
