TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO:  GOING METRIC AGAIN?
The Metrology Act 18 of 2004 “gives effect” to the International System of Units (SI).  The SI is a modernised, scientifically based version of the Metric System.  It is this law that makes the Metric System legal in Trinidad and Tobago.

Those of us that have memories of the 1970’s will ask, “Haven’t we gone metric already?” .
