Article by May 6, 2021
Senior citizens in Barbados are looking to “shake things up” and exercise their consumer rights by setting up a consumer protection body within the Barbados Association of Retired Persons (BARP).
President of BARP Marilyn Rice-Bowen gave the indication on Wednesday as the association continued its discussion with the Fair Trading Commission (FTC), aimed at raising awareness among members about consumer issues and the rights and responsibilities of elderly consumers.
She said the decision to establish a consumer protection agency comes amid ongoing concerns from members about some trade practices here.
“We need to shake up and really and truly look towards forming a consumer body within BARP,” said Rice-Bowen, as she reminded members “you have rights too, and you have extensive purchasing power”.
