While the Tobago Mas Bandleaders protested, their Chairman, Dianne Mc Crimmon, was called into an emergency meeting with the Secretary of Tourism, Culture, Antiquities, and Transportation, Tashia Burris, and the Tobago Festivals Commission.

After the meeting, Mc Crimmon reported that they were able to negotiate the prize structure being restored to 2023’s levels, along with the grants for bands. Additionally, they reinstated prizes for “band of the year.”
