Paria Fuel Trading Company (Paria) and its agents have been making efforts to process the claims for compensation arising out of the tragic and fatal incident that resulted in the loss of lives of four citizens in February 2022.
Unfortunately, these efforts are being frustrated by lack of information from LMCS and the legal representatives of the affected families. In this regard, Paria’s attorneys continues to exchange correspondence with those who have presented claims for compensation. However, this process requires a considered and balanced approach, taking into account all relevant stakeholders, including LMCS, the employer of the impacted divers, the terms of their employment and other key information.
As has been previously stated, to deviate from this process will not assist any interested parties and would more likely than not lead to a delay in finding a resolution.
Consequently, Paria encourages LMCS and the affected families to respond to the correspondence issued by Paria and its agents in a constructive manner in order that all claims for compensation can be properly and expeditiously addressed.
Paria assures those affected and the population that it remains committed to finding a way forward as swiftly and as fairly as possible.
