The president of the NTCUB was at today's press conference. His trade union umbrella group has also written to the PM demanding answers on the compulsory acquisition. Though he did answer them - today President Martinez said that was no answer at all -and they are still waiting:
Luke Martinez, President NTUCB
"We're still waiting for the Prime Minister to answer our questions that we sent him and we're pressing for him to give us a reasonable response. He sent us a page of nothing a few weeks ago and so we're still waiting for him to respond to us."
"As a matter of fact, we're still waiting to get around the table with him and his team to meaningfully discuss this issue. For the National Trade Union Congress, this is beyond those who are securing their investment."
"We are securing our democracy. We are ensuring that we secure tax payers dollars right, your tax money, all tax money, everybody's tax money. Right, so for us it's a tax issue as well as a very serious governance issue."
