Business as Usual at PGIA

CEO Santos mentioned that the Immigration Department quickly sent an IT technician to the Philip Goldson International Airport to fix the computer issue. She confirmed that the problem has now been resolved.

 

On the phone: Tanya Santos, CEO, Ministry of Immigration

“Yes, we actually sent in IT to fix the situation with the other computer at Terminal One.  So they should have their compliment of two at that terminal.  It can be argued that we need more officers in the departure, but that’s something that we can also discuss with the authorities there at the airport and adjust as well. So it’s going to take a little more discussion and planning, and collaboration with everyone to address this issue as we have more and more visitors to the country, and passengers and the traveling public. So we will have to respond accordingly within the space that is available currently because if you go to Terminal One, you might want to take, you’ve been to the airport before, you might see that there is really not much space for us to include anymore immigration officers there for departure.  Terminal Two, as well, is limited with space. So we can’t force what we can’t fit.”
