AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

High Court Ruling: Justice Tamara Gill says Petrona Thomas’ transfer from the Centralised Purchasing Unit was “wrongful, unlawful, irrational” and void, finding “vindictiveness and heavy-handedness” and ordering EC$10,000 in vindicatory damages—another blow to how public service transfers are handled. Water Security: Water Minister Konris Maynard announced a promising new Saddlers water source after hydrogeological surveys, with further testing promised as the government pushes toward more reliable 24/7 supply. Medicinal Cannabis Regulation: St. Kitts and Nevis secured a Seed-to-Sale Track and Trace system for the medicinal cannabis industry, using real-time monitoring to prevent diversion and protect product purity. Governance & Lawmaking: The National Assembly advanced the Extradition (Amendment) Bill, 2026, aimed at closing legal gaps and modernising how courts receive certified case records. National Development Push: PM Drew’s media tour spotlights major projects like the Symbol of Love at Fort Thomas, while a separate report questions whether the capital-development record since 2022 matches the scale of promised transformation. Energy Costs in Nevis: Premier Brantley urged electricity conservation as the domestic fuel surcharge returns amid global oil-price volatility. Diaspora & Social Services: RIDU outlined diaspora outreach via its Diaspora Digest, and digitisation is expanding social assistance registration and e-cash support. International Spotlight: St. Kitts and Nevis ranked top-10 globally for relocation in the Rumavi Index, and Janet Jackson toured Brimstone Hill Fortress.
