Truck drivers and other workers employed at the National Solid Waste Management Authority (NSWMA) have been promised a portion of the monies owed to them before the Christmas holidays

This after the Minister of Health Sir Molwyn Joseph made a proposal to provide USD$200,000.00 dollars to meet the expenses owed to truckers and others by the Authority.

On Wednesday, the Cabinet approved the proposal such that, before the Christmas holidays, truckers and others will receive a portion of monies owed to them, reducing significantly the amount owed to many of the contractors.

These men and women have been advocating for their outstanding payments for a very long time.
