were + past tense verb versus are + past tense verb?
Which is correct?
a. The Justice Secretary said prosecutors were allowed to join the event.
b. The Justice Secretary said prosecutors are allowed to join the event.
Given that this news was posted on 11am of that day, while the event was
from 9am to 2pm.

So when is it proper to use 'are + past tense verb' and 'were + past tense
verb'?
