PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad and Tobago, Express- NOW THAT Carnival 2013 is over Trinidad and Tobago may well give some thought to last weekend's statement by Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves of St Vincent and the Grenadines that this country is breaching Caricom's Revised Treaty in providing fuel subsidy support to state-owned Caribbean Airlines (CAL). Gonsalves currently wears two hats pertaining to regional air transport— he is chairman of the shareholders group for island-hopping airline LIAT and he has lead responsibility among Caricom Heads of Government for air and sea transportation. He plans to meet with Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar in Haiti next week to discuss a legal opinion he has confirming, he said, T&T's "contravention" of the Caricom Treaty.
