Lake, Kentish & Bennett Inc. – allocated for the payment of all former Jolly Beach Corporation workers, today, Friday 02 December 2022.<\/p>\n

Hughes further explained that the Union and its Attorneys will in the coming week work expeditiously to process these funds for payment to individuals in short order.<\/p>

A schedule and date for payment will be published in the coming week.<\/p>

Hughes underscores that having received the cheque today, Friday, 2 December 2022, is further confirmation that Prime Minister Gaston Browne lied when he claimed the Union was in possession of the funds weeks ago.<\/p>\n

We wish to express our gratitude to our members for their patience and understanding as we seek to have the matter resolved posthaste.<\/p>
