Noise nuisance task force set up

The Ministry of Public Security has established an Inter-Agency Task Force to combat noise nuisance.

A press release from the ministry on Thursday stated that in collaboration with various stakeholders, it decided to establish the task force out of the recognition of the right of citizens to live in an atmosphere of “peace and tranquility, and free from undue discomfort.”

The release quoted Coordi-nator Deonarine Ramaroop as saying that the main goal of the Task Force is to ensure that there is a greater enforcement of the laws/regulations on noise nuisance, which will reduce any discomfort caused by noise pollution across the country.
