THE government continued its efforts to regularise land tenure and bring closure to long-standing matters affecting former workers and their families of the now-defunct Caroni (1975) Ltd, which was shut down in 2003.

Land and Legal Affairs Minister Saddam Hosein helped distribute leases to 250 recipients in Couva on January 21.

Hosein said the distribution marked the third such exercise in nine months under the Kamla Persad-Bissessar-led administration since it was elected in April last year.
