PORT-OF-SPAIN, TRINIDAD (CMC):

Prime Minister Patrick Manning says crime talks with the Opposition United National Congress (UNC) are growing cold.

He was addressing a Chamber of Industry and Commerce dinner at the Hilton Trinidad on Tuesday.

"The Government noted a change in attitude of the Opposition, we noted it and I say it only to alert you ... that it looks as though, after a very successful and enthusiastic start, the discussions are now appearing too remote to a situation of business as usual."
