He said pallets were dumped next to a garbage bin in front of his home and at several locations in the St. Peters/ South Reward and Cay Hill area. He said as citizen living in South Reward he has seen pallets which was taken there by someone. Marlin said he also caught two men who were taking garbage from a pick-up truck and throwing into the garbage bins in front of Milton Peters College and he personally stopped and confronted those persons who eventually apologized.

The Prime Minister said he also spoke to the department of VROMI to have their inspectors out because the garbage situation does concern him and there is not one day that goes by that he does not speak about the garbage situation.
