No widespread layoffs, Sinckler assures

Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler is assuring Barbadians there will be no widespread layoffs in the public service.
In his Budget presentation this evening in Parliament, Sinckler said there has been “coded messages” sent by several analysts suggesting major cuts in expenditure. However, Sinckoler says the DLP is determined to save jobs.
Sinckler, however, hinted there might be a need to increase taxation. (CM)
