AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Prison Reform & Reintegration: Saint Lucia’s long struggle with overcrowding and high recidivism is revisited as the Bordelais Correctional Facility (BCF) in Dennery—opened in 2003—continues the push beyond construction toward rehabilitation and safer return to society. Tourism & Local Benefits: The Underwater Sculpture Park is officially launched, aiming to ease pressure on existing reefs while creating a new, locally owned attraction that supports livelihoods. Agriculture Skills Boost: Seventy-six farmers graduate from a six-week capacity building workshop under the “Seven Crops Project,” with training spanning GAP, pesticide safety, post-harvest, marketing and smart agriculture. Workplace Relations: The National Workers Union and Millennium Heights Medical Complex sign a new workplace agreement after dialogue facilitated by the Department of Labour, Co-operatives and Consumer Affairs. Sports Tourism Push: Saint Lucia partners with Saracens as the rugby club’s official destination partner, with promotion in the UK and mentorship links via the Saint Lucia Rugby Academy. Security & Industry Impact: A $193.5M cocaine seizure in Chaguanas sparks renewed calls for zero tolerance and stronger property checks by landlords and property owners. Housing Finance: Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre urges the Saint Lucia Development Bank to move quickly on an EC$54 million housing facility financed via Taiwan’s EXIM Bank, with government guarantees and faster processing hoped for.
