THE NATIONAL INSURANCE SCHEME (NIS) is pumping $76 million into the construction and/or refurbishment of five police station complexes across the island.
Three of the four being built will be completed on time and on budget. Construction of the fifth, at Six Roads, St Philip, is yet to start.
This has been revealed not only by the director of the National Insurance Department, Ian Carrington, but by Attorney General Adriel Brathwaite, as they toured the new District “D” Police Station and Magistrates’ Court at Cane Garden, St Thomas, yesterday.
They were joined by Commissioner of Police Tyrone Griffith and other high-ranking police officers, Supreme Court Registrar Barbara Cooke-Alleyne and some of her staff, Chief Marshal John Lovell and some of his marshals, as well as Barbados Labour Party Member of Parliament for St Thomas, Cynthia Forde.
