In the delay it is taking for the Tobago Marine Park Bill to be enacted, some jet ski operators are still operating their crafts near shores with bathers.So said Tobago House of Assembly (THA) councillor Orlando Kerr when asked to comment on the family of Angelica Jogie taking legal action after their daughter died in a jet ski collision at Pigeon Point on April 8.The THA passed the updated Tobago Marine Parks Bill 2026 in April. As of mid-2026, the legislation is currently with the Chief Parliamentary Council (CPC) for drafting before being tabled in the national Parliament for final enactment.Recalling the tragic April jet ski-related child death, Kerr, who is also the THA Secretary for Education, Skills and Innovation, commented: “...It was really a tragic situation, really unfortunate. In my view, it could have been avoided... ...I am seeing situations where, even after this incident, persons are still coming in the bathing areas with jet skis. I don’t know what is going on in person’s minds, but we really would want to have that Marine Park Bill passed so we could put some teeth to the law—so that when persons break the law, we can enforce the law.”Kerr made the comments while speaking on Friday at the CoCo Reef Resort & Spa where Tobago’s Top 20 SEA students were being honoured by the THA.Talking about Tobago’s general SEA pass rates, Kerr said while the numbers have improved in Language and Mathematics, the Division of Education was analysing strategies to help them score above the National Mean: “...we are going to be implementing some strategies as early as September this year to start getting that whole school development, so that we can lift our performances across the board,” he said.Kerr—whose son Tahir Kerr sat the SEA exam, placing in the top ten boys—said girls still outperformed boys. “In our top 20 students, we have had ten boys and ten girls, so the boys have been competing. But we still have some concerns about the level of performance of our boys, and therefore that is one of the things that we would be looking at and strategising in going forward,” he said.Buccoo Government Primary School emerged the top performing primary school in the SEA examination in Tobago, followed by Castara Government Primary School and Speyside Anglican School.
