T&T gov’t seeking advice on deferring local gov’t polls

Aug 09, 2013

(Trinidad Express) Government is seeking legal advice on the possibility of postponing the local government elections, sources said yesterday.
If the government moves for a postponement this would be a complete reversal of the Prime Minister’s earlier pledges of her People’s Partnership Government to hold elections when they are constitutionally due by October 26.
The fundamental rethink has come in the wake of the debacle which befell the United National Congress (UNC) in the Chaguanas West by-election on July 29 in their heartland seat.
