MP Marshall and her team listened keenly to the plights of the vendors and noted that at the completion of the dialogue, the vendors, some of whom have been occupying the area for more than 20 years; were assured that they will not be displaced.<\/p>

She added that Minister Fernandez has committed to continue working along with the vendors in ensuring that the space is made available for them to vend.<\/p>

“We have already identified bathroom facilities and DCA will assist with the designs of the new vending booths that will be more aesthetically pleasing for the beachfront, as well as storage space for those vendors who rents chairs and umbrellas”, MP Marshall indicated.<\/p>\n

Marshall expressed how happy she was to have been able to speak with the vendors and also to have had the full cooperation of her colleague ministers in Minister Bird-Browne and Minister Fernandez.<\/p>
