Chief executive officer of the Barbados Agricultural Society (BAS) James Paul is slamming a group of businesses he says is involved in the importation and sale of chicken breasts and pork chops.
Deeming their actions as “unjust”, “reckless”, “undermining” and “unacceptable”, he called on the relevant authorities to review the process through which the importers brought in the meats and check to see if it was in accordance with the regulations that govern their licence.
