Leader of the Opposition Dr Godwin Friday picked up where he left off in his critique of the 2021 Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure, during his response to this year’s Budget Presentation, February 1.
Friday said in his response to the Minister Finance Camillo Gonsalves’ 2021 Budget presentation, that it was not one that had been crafted for the present times. This is a timid response to the pandemic,” Friday said.
He added that members of the public were presently at a heightened state of concern and anxiety as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, …… (and) the threat of an explosive eruption of La Soufriere.
