It is likely that the Government was partly responsible for the under-performance of State-owned enterprises [LIKE PAN TRINBAGO].

And the Government intends to examine how Parliament, Ministers and Ministries interact with the state enterprises [PANTRINBAGO], under their charge, says Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley.

He said State-owned enterprises[PAN TRINBAGO] have a critical role to play in the supply of economic goods and services in Trinidad and Tobago.

“We also need to face the harsh reality that, in general, too many of our state-owned [PAN TRINBAGO] enterprises have been underperforming – some much more than others. Some might even have deviated so far from their original purpose as to become the problem they were created to solve. 

Rowley also noted that appropriate laws, regulations and codes are needed, in addition to attitudinal changes to duties, in order to address the challenges faced by the sector [PAN TRINBAGO].

He said the timely submission of financial reports, whether audited or otherwise, is an uncompromising demand going forward. Proper oversight and reporting as well as eliminating opportunities for waste, abuse and corruption is necessary [For PAN TRINBAGO].

Rowley said there were about 100 State enterprises and subsidiaries, but not all of them were well run [PAN TRINBAGO, for instance].

“Ladies and gentlemen, to put it mildly, performance of the State-owned Enterprise sector [Especially PAN TRINBAGO] has fallen far short of what we expected,” he said.

JJJ: Yuh writing to the PRIME MINISTER at exactly the right time -- if the man serious.
