The Government of Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday said that it is not currently pursuing challenging Guyana’s local content laws but rather, is trying to understand how both nations can collectively benefit from the resources in the sector.
“There has been a lot of interest in this particular matter. There has been interpretations. What the Government of Trinidad and Tobago has tried to do, is not to view it through negative lenses but to understand what Guyana is trying to do. From that standpoint, we have not aggressively taken any positions to put the Guyanese objective under any litmus test,” Trinidad and Tobago’s Prime Minis-ter, Keith Rowley, said when asked by Stabroek News at a State House press conference if his government has mulled asking the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) for a legal interpretation of the law.
