Dear Editor,
It is with much frustration that I am writing on behalf of my daughter who has been employed within the Ministry of Agriculture for the past eleven years. Last year she applied for a duty-free concession to which she is entitled and which would allow her to do her job in a more efficient manner, but to date it has not been approved by Minister Robert Persaud.
She is in charge of two sub-districts which fall in a rural area, and this makes it hard for her to get to each farmer on a daily basis.
