Works Minister Rohan Sinanan is today defending infrastructural works across the country, among them the Valencia to Toco Highway.

As he delivered his contribution to the budget debate in the Parliament on Tuesday, the Minister refuted the Opposition's claims that the project was "all talk, no action."

He said work on the highway is set to begin as early as next month.

Government also remains committed to advancing works in Tobago, namely the Airport Terminal Building.

Another major project Minister Sinanan accounted for was the building of a ferry port from Toco to Tobago. Once built, the Minister said the port will greatly develop the Eastern seaboard.

In August, NIDCO Chairman Herbert George said the ferry port would cost taxpayers somewhere between two and five billion dollars.
