Over a month after receiving government approval, the installation of a drainage system at Tranquility Park Cemetery remains stalled, as revealed during a recent Cabinet briefing. Maurice Merchant, Director General of Communications, confirmed that while burials are ongoing at the site, officials are still in the process of conducting evaluations and mobilizing resources. ‘Burials are taking place there, and there’s still some evaluations being done. Resources are being assembled to facilitate the much-needed installation of a drainage system,’ Merchant stated during the Thursday post-Cabinet press briefing. The decision to install the drainage system was made last month following severe flooding caused by heavy rainfall, which resulted in significant water-logging at the cemetery. Despite the urgency, Merchant did not provide a specific timeline for when the work will commence. The delay has raised concerns, particularly as the cemetery remains operational, and efforts to expedite the process are under close scrutiny.
