New forensics centre coming soon

From Government Information Services Ltd, Trinidad:
Christlyn Moore at Thursday's post cabinet media briefing
Trinidad and Tobago will soon have another forensics science centre.

This was announced by Minister of Justice, Christlyn Moore Thursday during the weekly post-Cabinet news briefing.

Moore explained that Cabinet has approved five acres of land for the construction of a Forensic and Pathology Centre. She said the land would be excised from the 62 acres of land in Carlson Field, which has been air marked for the construction of a judicial centre.

“The land is a lot for the judicial centre alone. So this forensic centre will be neighbour the judicial centre,” Moore explained.

The Minister also explained that her Ministry is in the process of getting all the necessary clearances for the construction of the centre.

“Not a rock has been unturned. We are in the process of getting all the necessary clearances before any work begins.”

The Minister also explained that Trinidad and Tobago has been working on developing measures to deal with the issue of the world-wide shortage of pathologists. One such measure will be the issuance of certain scholarships.

“The issue of cutting into the dead is taboo across all cultures. Therefore there are very few persons entering the field of pathology,” Moore explained.
