00:00Of course, you've seen the photo, with that rag holding the hose in that container, it's a fire hazard.
00:10TV6 News was provided with photographic evidence of a fire hazard on board a reef tow vessel on Monday at the Buku Reef Marine Park in Tobago.
00:20According to Mr. Carvalho, a series of additional concerns at Pigeon Point were also formally reported to the Norwegian Sky Cruise Liner.
00:32At Tobago, we got a whole, from the same ship here, a whole series of issues at Pigeon Point. So we are trying to deal with that.
00:41Mr. Carvalho said there must be quality control management and monitoring.
00:47Every time I raise concern from the cruise lines, it comes about, it comes across to the people of Tobago.
00:56Even in Trinidad, Mr. Carvalho is a miserable person. You follow? Even in meetings.
01:03Oh, he talking again. Oh, what he want again. But that attitude must change.
01:08Because, remember, we're speaking on behalf of the cruise line. And when we get correspondence and queries from the cruise lines, we have to follow up.
01:19Carvalho said it is his intention to meet with newly re-elected Assemblymember and Tourism Secretary Zerisha Hackett to address the concerns that have reached his desk.
01:31We are working towards meeting the new Secretary for Tourism in Tobago. That is on our agenda. It's just that we have a lot of back-to-back cruise ships right now.
01:40And Carnival is on our hands, so we have a Carnival ship coming here for five days. Plus, we have other ships on that.
01:45So, we have that on our agenda to meet with the new Secretary of Tourism to highlight most of these things.
01:52Elizabeth Williams, TV6 News.
01:54And we'll see you next time.
