UDP Retrench Works From City Hall
posted (April 2, 2012)
When the UDP took over City Hall in 2006 - it marked the end of a long drought, politically - and the council had to hire "Good UDP's" from all over the city.

Well now, things have changed, and the new UDP City Council has decided to cut the fat - even if it means laying off those who may be called "good UDP's".

7news has confirmed from the council that it has laid off 25 employees - after a review by the managers of each section. A senior source told us that the city administrators instructed managers to determine which posts are redundant, and which workers are not working up to par.

The managers came up with a list of 25 and those persons have been laid off. The employees are saying that they have been retrenched, many of them by their own party.
