The Port Mourant Market has been shuttered as a result of not being cleaned since Saturday owing to a shortage of labourers.
The Port Mourant Neighbourhood Dem-ocratic Council (NDC) which is responsible for the market is claiming that the Local Government Com-mission (LGC) has been dragging its feet with regard to employing the necessary labourers. The LGC could not be reached yesterday for comment.
As of yesterday afternoon it was unclear whether the market would be cleaned in time for Friday and Saturday when typically all the market vendors would be out to ply their trade.
