A former Universal Service Fund (USF) legal officer yesterday testified that neither of the agency’s contracts with the Caribbean Maritime University (CMU) nor with a private training institution made provision for meals for participants in an unattached youth training programme. Instead, she said participants received a monthly stipend of $10,600 from USF, paid fortnightly, to assist with transportation and the purchase of meals.
