Former THA assemblyman, Mr. Gerald Macfarlane, joins us to examine the way forward for Tobago following the swearing-in of a new administration and proposed amendments to the THA Amendment Bill. In this interview, he shares his perspective on the expansion of Secretaries within the executive, the significance of replacing the term “Assemblyman” with “Assembly Member”, and the possible restructuring of THA divisions.
Mr. Macfarlane also reflects on the importance of transparency and accountability in a 15–nil political landscape, and outlines his hopes for Tobago’s governance and development going forward.
