The services of former Director General of Maritime Administration (MARAD) and recently appointed Advisor on Maritime Affairs Claudette Rogers have been terminated by the Ministry of Public Works, Minister Juan Edghill last told the National Assembly.

Addressing terminations in his ministry during his presentation for the budget debates, Edghill said the ministry had to let go of Rogers for a number of reasons.

While he did not specify a reason for her termination, sources at the Ministry told Stabroek News that termination may have stemmed from the forensic audit into the operations of MARAD.
