GOVERNMENT IS BEING URGED not to grant concessions to those restaurants or hotels who fail to sign off on the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Barbados Agricultural Society (BAS) and the Barbados Manufacturers’ Association (BMA).

The appeal has come from James Paul, chief executive officer of the BAS, who believes that failure to do so would undermine economic activity and devastate the agricultural society in Barbados.

Paul made the comments earlier today, in response to comments from president of the Barbados Hotel &Tourism Association (BHTA), Sunil Chatrani who questioned the signing of the MOU during a general meeting on Wednesday. (RB)
