AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Airport Finance Transparency: The United Progressive Party (UPP) is demanding the Government publish detailed long-term financial viability data for Dominica’s international airport, warning that inflation, rising aviation costs, uncertain tourism demand, and small-island risks could force taxpayers into future subsidies, citing St. Vincent’s Argyle Airport as a cautionary example. Hurricane Readiness: Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit urged households to review emergency plans and supplies as the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season began June 1, while DAIC called for broader business preparedness beyond hurricanes, including flooding, heat, outages, and supply-chain shocks. Connectivity Upgrade: Flow says it has invested over US$1 million to fix mobile network interference in northern Dominica, with specialised equipment due to arrive June 5–15 and installation expected to restore service quality. Skills & Jobs Pipeline: The Ministry of Education invited the public to TVET Showcase 2026 (June 5) to highlight hands-on vocational training in areas like agriculture, garment production, food and nutrition, and woodwork. Regional Economic Justice: OECS and partners are moving to strengthen access to economic justice through arbitration and ADR training, including an OHADAC–CARO programme launch in June. Clean Energy for Fisheries: The Canada-funded STAR-Fish project is scaling clean energy interventions for Caribbean fisheries, targeting cold-chain upgrades and low-carbon certification opportunities. Sargassum Management: A SARSEA study mission in Martinique and Guadeloupe (June 1–4) will focus on sargassum collection and turning the seaweed into value-added products. Aviation Links to Paris: Air Caraïbes and LIAT launched an interline single-ticket arrangement to connect Caribbean islands to Paris-Orly with through-checked baggage starting June 1.
