Senior Minister and Minister of Energy and Business, Kerrie Symmonds highlighted issues where consumers may be purchasing an item that suggests one net-weight but are actually getting less.
He shared the examples as he led off Debate on the Barbados Metrology Bill 2022.
Minister Symmonds says there’s need for a holistic discussion on the ways consumers are being affected.
