Environmental issues at St Bartholomew Primary unresolved

There is still no solution for the environmental problem at the St Bartholomew Primary, despite weekend talks between various stakeholders.

This was the update given on Tuesday by President of the Barbados Union of Teachers (BUT) Rudy Lovell as he and other union officials toured the Parish Land, Christ Church school, after teachers and students complained of feeling ill from acrid smoke billowing upwind from the Grantley Adams International Airport incinerator last Thursday.

Lovell told Barbados TODAY that despite long talks held on Saturday, no long-term solution had been agreed to. However, a suggestion that the incinerator only be used after school hours was suggested by the union. (SB)
