The Opposition Leader has extended condolences to the family of Helen Bhagwansingh. In a statement she said:

Her ingenuity shone through her acumen at business – especially in an area dominated by men. Her ingenuity shone through in her foresight, leadership, and philanthropy in good times and bad.”
