PORT-OF-SPAIN – With no board of directors in place at the Airports Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (AATT), Works and Transport Minister Austin Jack Warner has admitted he has awarded a contract and taken away another.
“I approved the award for the airport lighting but revoked the one for the Tobago runway paving until the new board is appointed since the request (by the AATT) made of me in the letter of July 15, 2010, described the Tobago runway as ‘a low to medium risk to aircraft operations’,” he said.
