Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley has raised a red flag on a private car dealership which she said seemed to be everywhere a group of Sanitation Service Authority (SSA) personnel went to purchase garbage trucks in Europe.

As a result of the observation, Mottley said the SSA group was asked to return home.

“There are private sector people who believe that the Government has not changed. And I want them to understand that that behaviour would not be accepted by my Government. A [SSA] group went overseas to be able to look at second-hand trucks pursuant to a board paper, and a certain car company’s representatives happened to be at every single location that the group that went representing the Sanitation Service Authority went to,” she said.

Mottley was speaking at a St Michael South East branch meeting of her Barbados Labour Party at Parkinson Resource Centre Centre on Sunday night. (JS)
