In piloting a Bill, Minister of Industry, Investment and
Commerce, Anthony Hylton interestingly a big talker, said the legislation
was being amended to regulate the use of weighing and measuring equipment
wanting to protect consumers from unscrupulous providers of goods and
commodities. Who is going to arrest a woman with her pound scale
although the law says is metric only? I understand and buy in pounds more than
metric, the great USA our biggest trading partner still uses imperial
measures, quart, pounds and ounces. All I see is "good move" to
another round of chatter. As to gas station some of them have "cheap
gas" which may be more expensive than the more expensive gas. There is
mechanism already in place with the Bureau of Standards to check and
certify the pumps' calibration. There is however always an acceptable margin of
error + or - that you can work within to make extra money
with "cheap gas". You all know there are tricks to every trade so
there needs to be more vigilant policing of the regulations not necessarily
more laws and amendment to laws.09/09/15
