PTSC: TTFF owes us $1.4m
T&T Express

For more than two years, the Public Transport Service Corporation (PTSC) has been trying to get $1.4 million owed to it by the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF).

The Sunday Express was told that during the period August-September 2010, the PTSC provided transportation and advertising services for the Local Organising Committee (LOC) of football body FIFA’s Women’s Under-17 tournament and has yet to be paid for the services provided.The request was made by then secretary of the TTFF and Minister of Works and Transport Jack Warner and done before a board was officially appointed, the Sunday Express was informed.

Warner subsequently recommended that Devant Maharaj, now Food Production Minister, be appointed to chair the PTSC board.

The bill was broken into two parts: transportation which amounted to $1,344,356 for the use of 342 buses and advertising and promotion which amounted to $45,000.

Documents delivered to the Sunday Express showed repeated attempts by the PTSC to recover the sums owed to the Corporation from the TTFF and Concacaf (Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Associations of Football).

The invoices, which had a billing cycle of 30 days, were dated October 11, 2010.

In 2011, the PTSC again wrote to the TTFF, this time to the attention of Richard Groden.

Get to the back of the queue, guys. Money still missing from 2006!

The simple solution (as has always been the case) is that the LOC chairman for the U17WC, 2010WC amd 2006WC needs to receive a summons for all outstanding financial documents and contracts. If there appears to be some kind of mismanagement, the evidence can be passed to the DPP to decide if there is a legal case and if it's in the public interest to order an investigation.

Or, at least that would be the case in many countries, but as we know, T&T is special.
