As a result, they were moved to the present temporary location. They have been there now temporarily for 13 years. Saboto, in agreeing with the farmers concerns told parliament that <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:Helvetica;\">\u201c<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\">there are several sanitary issues at the current location which<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:Helvetica;\">\u2026<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\">.have arisen primarily because of activities of persons who illegally dump garbage on the premises of the meat market.

What of the allocated 1.5 million euros? This project is going along the line of other ULP promised projects where monies are allocated but no work done and no monies accounted for? In the meantime, however, Saboto has embarked on a program of live cattle exportation to Grenada, where the animals are slaughtered and marketed under the very same rubric as now being vocalized by him. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\">This project is going along the line of other ULP promised projects where monies are allocated but no work done and no monies accounted for?

The primary concern has always been one of political expediency. The more grandiose and costly the project the better. More optics. This is evident in the $33million fisheries project in Owia, the Cross Country road, the eco-tourism hotel across the dry river, the tunnel under Cane Garden, the national stadium, the rehabilitation of 2000 acres of banana and the list goes on. The sale of cattle to Grenada falls within that very same mould. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:100%; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:100%; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:100%; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\">Mr. Editor, the policies of Dr. the Hon Godwin Friday and the New Democratic Party now stand in stark contrast to the operations of the ULP.

For our beloved country to move out of the present economic morass in which we now find ourselves, we must have all hands on deck and put the country first.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:100%; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height:100%; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt; color:#222222;\"><span style=\"font-family:TimesNewRoman;\">The proposal is therefore to identify a suitable location in which to construct a national abattoir, where animals will be humanely slaughtered and where the meat cuts will be properly packaged, to satisfy all applicable standards, for export. Butchers will be trained and certified. For years Mr. Richard Gibson has been offering his expertise to assist in the training of our butchers. His offer must be taken on board.
