AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

US Visa Shock for CHTA: Dominica-born hotelier Gregor Nassief, newly elected president of the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association, says his U.S. visa renewal was denied, with reports pointing to wider Washington restrictions tied to citizenship-by-investment screening; Prime Minister Skerrit declined to comment on the consular decision. Airport Progress: Skerrit says the Wesley international airport is advancing across multiple work areas, with earthworks/culverts at about 78% and runway/taxiway at 60%, plus approvals for the Stonefield aggregate site and crushing plant. Energy & Power: DOMLEC reports $1.99 million in profits for the financial year, while crews restore electricity after a feeder fault triggered a wider outage. Health Milestone: Dominica completed its first brain tumour surgery, marking a major step for the healthcare system. Budget & Schools: Skerrit previews the 2026–2027 budget with economy-focused initiatives, CBI changes, and plans to improve school structures islandwide; teachers at government-assisted secondary schools are also calling for more attention. Regional Policy & Tourism: CARICOM trade ministers meet in Guyana for COTED, chaired by Dominica’s Vince Henderson; Discover Dominica Authority hosts a wellness tourism panel as the tourism awareness push continues. CBI Tightening: New rules require successful CBI applicants to visit Dominica in person and spend time in the country to collect renewed passports.
