AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Fuel & cost pressures: The UWP is urging Dominica to push CARICOM talks with Guyana to access cheaper gasoline as local fuel prices rise, linking the increase to the wider US–Israel–Iran conflict. Regional environment push: OECS Environment Minister Cozier Frederick called for stronger member-state involvement on environmental protection, stressing climate financing, capacity building, and public participation. Local fisheries development: Prime Minister Skerrit continued consultations in Marigot on making the Marigot Fisheries Complex a port of entry, aiming to reassure fishers and vendors that operations won’t disrupt livelihoods while boosting the northeast economy. Tourism momentum: Tourism Awareness Month 2026 was launched with a focus on wellness tourism and upgrades, citing a 15% rise in 2025 visitor arrivals and continued growth into 2026. Energy reliability: DOMLEC said May 26 load shedding was caused by a generation shortfall tied to a fault at Fond Cole Power Plant, with repairs scheduled after peak hours. Regional aviation shock: Caribbean Airlines is cutting routes and reducing frequencies from June 1, including discontinuing Dominica services, as it restructures after major losses. Social protection upgrade: The World Food Programme donated computers and tablets to strengthen Dominica’s social services data management systems. Governance & institutions: An open letter from Gregor Nassief calls for a reset of Dominica’s Electoral Commission over low voter-list confirmation progress and damaged public confidence.
