Pan Trinbago PRO Michael Joseph said today's meeting with Culture Minister Nyan Gadsby-Dolly and the National Carnival Commission (NCC) is expected to address issues such as gate receipts.


Joseph said at their meeting on Tuesday Pan Trinbago was also hammering out ­issues such as reducing the number of ­pannists in the respective ensembles.

    Mr. Joseph, the issues are more complex than "reducing the number of pannists in their respective ensembles"
