Government to implement subsidy to mitigate against rising global gas prices

Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has announced that the government will provide a subsidy to offset the rising fuel taxes caused by the increasing global gas prices.

Mr Skerrit told a press conference earlier today that this measure will take effect by the end of May.
