A BUSINESSMAN is throwing cold water on the actions of Innotech Aquaserve Ltd for seizing community water tanks.

James Edghill, manager of Caribbean Consultants Ltd, said such a move was not in keeping with corporate social responsibility.

“We do not believe these actions are reflective of corporate Barbados. We think the private sector needs to work more with Government, especially in these times, and this is a small gesture of us leading by example,” he said.

Edghill was speaking after he donated 12 water tanks procured from Rotoplastics (Barbados) to the Barbados Water Authority (BWA).

The business manager said this was the time of year where companies should be seeking to help families, so when he heard about the seizure, his heart went out to those affected. (CA)
