AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Fuel & Energy: Prime Minister Gaston Browne warns Antigua motorists to brace for more pump increases after gasoline and diesel jumped by EC$2 per gallon, as global costs and the end of some government support keep pressure on prices. Industrial Action: He also hit back at gas station owners threatening a Tuesday shutdown over demands to raise profit margins, saying it’s “bad timing” while prices are already escalating. Education & Pay: Over 300 teachers say they’re still missing retroactive pay as schools reopen; the union is validating claims with the Ministry of Education. Prison Policy: Attorney Warren Cassell says Cabinet’s August changes to prison remission could weaken incentives for good behaviour by shifting from automatic release to “consideration” for remission. Agriculture in Schools: Simon Bolivar Pre-School’s garden is being held up as a hands-on model for early childhood agriculture, from planting to harvesting tea leaves. Tourism & Cannabis: A Rastafari leader urges Antigua and Barbuda to position itself as a cannabis tourism hub, leaning on outdoor growing conditions and climate advantages. Regional Industry Watch: LIAT Air is cautious about adding routes after Caribbean Airlines ends its Tobago-Barbados service, to avoid head-to-head competition.
