Customs seizes Meridian Construction backhoe
It is not clear whether the works at the cruise pier dock, which has seen its share of incidents over the past months, will be adversely affected.
Meridian Construction is key to the ongoing development project at the cruise pier dock. This afternoon this news site stumbled on the backhoe sitting all stamped and taped up with a notice of seizure from the Customs Department.
The notice reads, "...for the following reasons: in contravention of the Customs Management and Duties act #6. 2010."
Speaking to this news site, Commissioner of Customs Wade Smith said, “It is a little premature to comment now, but we are looking at some matters.”
Confirming that there have been issues with Customs over the equipment, General Manager of Nanny Cay Resort and Marina, Miles Sutherland-Pilch said that the company that owns the equipment is in touch with Customs on the issue.
Efforts to reach Meridian Construction for a comment proved futile.
