AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Hurricane Readiness: Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit is urging Dominicans to prepare early for the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season, saying NEPO has already reviewed shelters, supplies and agency response plans, but stressing preparedness is a shared responsibility. Power & Utilities: DOMLEC says a fault between the Fond Colé Substation and Fond Colé Power Plant triggered a major early-morning outage, with crews isolating the fault and some communities facing longer restoration times. Roseau North By-Election: The Dominica Labour Party has named Ashma McDougall as its candidate after Miriam Blanchard resigned for health reasons, while the party also says she was approached by the UWP before accepting the DLP nomination. Sports: Thea LaFond and Tyler Mason took top honours at the Dominica National Sports Awards, marking the awards’ return after a hiatus since Hurricane Maria. Health Policy: PAHO reports health taxes on alcohol and sugary drinks across the Americas are still too low to curb harmful consumption, including in the Caribbean. Environment & Tourism: Work has begun on protecting Morne Diablotin National Park through boundary demarcation and a buffer zone under a GEF/World Bank-backed eco-tourism biodiversity project. Regional News: Jamaica and the U.S. are in talks on a third-country nationals transit arrangement, with Jamaica insisting it is not an uncontrolled migration programme.
