We wonder what Trotman's take is on Granger's benefits as opposition leader

“We are concerned that there are no caps in the same way that we argued when the bill that was brought in this House for the benefits of former presidents was hotly debated and we called on caps and ceilings to be placed on spending because, Mr Speaker, after all, ours is not an extravagant economy that can afford extravagant spending.”

Those were the words of Raphael Trotman after the Opposition Leader's Benefits Bill was passed in the National Assembly at a time when this post was being held by Robert Corbin. Corbin and Trotman did not get along as it was a fall-out between the two over the PNC leadership after the death of Desmond Hoyte which led to the former leaving the PNC.
We wonder what he has to say now that David Granger has assumed that role.
