The Caribbean Media Corporation is reporting that Prime Minister Tillman Thomas this morning confirmed that Joseph Gilbert has been fired as minister of environment in his Government.
The Prime Minister told CMC that he has advised Governor General Sir Carlisle Glean to revoke Gilbert’s appointment. Gilbert, the former works minister, has been accused of writing to an American investor promising a casino gambling licence. “His action of giving this letter is clearly a breach of his cabinet responsibilities,” Thomas said told CMC.
