Eddie Boyer

The Private Sector Commission (PSC) is currently seeking legal advice on whether City Hall has the right to implement a $25,000 container tax which the city council is enforcing, even as it awaits a meeting to discuss the issue.

“We are seeking legal advice to determine the legality of their action,” President of the PSC Eddie Boyer told Stabroek News yesterday. He said too that they are awaiting a meeting sought with the council on the matter.
