Recently appointed Minister within the Ministry of Public Works Deodat Indar has bemoaned delays in sealing breaches along the Mahaicony shoreline, which one of the contractors, BK International, claims is partly due to a defect in the design provided to it.
Indar told this newspaper on Saturday that BK International should have recognised the urgent need for works to be done and begun mobilising the necessary materials and resources for its project at Content, Mahaicony.
“The contractor is saying that the delay resulted from not being able to source the right material but my understanding is that this material is being used throughout the country,” he said while stating that an alternative should have been looked at.
