The Division of Settlements, Public Utilities & Rural Development is re-establishing a New Framework for Housing Grants
Scarborough, Tobago – The Division of Settlements, Public Utilities and Rural Development is actively developing a new framework for issuing housing grants in Tobago. Secretary Ian Pollard stated this on the Good Morning Tobago show, emphasizing the necessity of this overhaul.
The decision to create a new framework comes after an Auditor General report highlighted significant irregularities in the way grants were issued under the previous administration. This initiative aims to enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency in the grant distribution process, ensuring that housing assistance reaches those most in need.
Kandace Jackson has more details on this report, outlining the specific changes being implemented by the Division to streamline the issuance of housing grants in Tobago.
