The Public Services Association and Government officials met on Wednesday to discuss ways in which they can return the Immigration Department back to a state of normalcy.
PSA President Watson Duke said nothing was agreed upon.

Meanwhile, the PSA presented a document at a press conference on Wednesday, which stated that there was evidence that workers were at risk while carrying out their duties.
It stated that an Occupational Safety and Health Authority (OSHA) Inspection Report, which was conducted at the Immigration Office at Frederick Street Port of Spain on Friday 4 July, 2014 showed that the employees’ health and safety had been threatened.
The OSHA report indicated that the health of the employees were in serious and imminent danger and unusual circumstances arose which were hazardous and injurious to the employees’ life and health.
