United Taxi Company (UTC) members, comprising 45 individuals, voted to prompt their executive to hold a meeting within 48 hours.

Failing this, the members plan to initiate the election of a new board due to the executive’s delay in conducting elections beyond the June 2023 deadline.

Minister of Tourism Charles “Max” Fernandez met with 30 taxi drivers near the old airport terminal to discuss the ongoing dispute.

The executive’s decision to postpone a September meeting heightened tensions, leading members to sign a petition for the executive’s removal.

Minister Fernandez recommended members write to the executive, setting a timeframe for a meeting to reach a resolution.

During the meeting, concerns arose about the executive’s failure to provide a financial report in over a year. Members approved a motion to address the deadlock, expressing hope for a positive resolution.

Keithroy Benjamin emphasized the need for the executive to seek a new mandate for changes.

Despite dissatisfaction, members anticipated the current president’s intervention to resolve the issue.
