AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Energy & Outages: DOMLEC says power is being restored after a widespread outage triggered by a fault on its Lower Goodwill Feeder, with the geothermal plant later tripping and spreading the disruption. Education & Infrastructure: PM Roosevelt Skerrit reports “very satisfactory” progress on the Goodwill Secondary School build, with major structures completed and finishing works underway. Agriculture & Food Security: Government plans to invest nearly $700,000 in an animal feed mill to cut import dependence, with cassava tests already showing promising results and an Expression of Interest expected soon. Health Policy: PAHO warns health taxes on alcohol and sugary drinks across the Americas remain too low to curb consumption, urging higher tax levels to reduce non-communicable diseases. Finance & Accountability: NCCU delinquency hits $86.4 million, and the treasurer calls for stronger member accountability as the credit union pushes portfolio-improvement steps. Tourism & Community: Dominica will host Soufriere Divefest 2026 on August 29–30, spotlighting eco-diving in the Soufriere/Scotts Head Marine Reserve. Citizenship Oversight: Dominica tightens citizenship-by-investment enforcement, saying citizenship obtained below the official minimum investment threshold will be revoked. Resettlement & Safety: UPP backs possible return of former Petite Savanne residents only after scientific and safety assessments confirm resettlement is feasible. Regional Connectivity: CHTA president-elect Gregor Nassief urges Trinidad and Tobago to reconsider route withdrawals that include Dominica, warning of damage to multi-destination tourism and travel links.
