AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Road Works Accountability: PM Gaston Browne says C.O. Williams Construction must redo defective sections of recently resurfaced roads at the contractor’s own expense, after public complaints of rutting, cracking and rapid deterioration. Infrastructure Financing: Government is “almost there” on the first drawdown from a $100 million road programme, expected to release $20 million once amended documentation is submitted. Maritime & Tourism Business: Jumeirah’s Maltese Falcon will make a transatlantic full-charter voyage to Antigua in December, with up to three days in port after 10 days at sea—another boost for hospitality and visitor spending. Offshore & Financial Services: Browne says Antigua will overhaul offshore banking, including higher minimum capital (around US$20m) and removing preferential tax treatment, to better protect depositors and reduce profit shifting. Security & Industry Risk: YIDA Special Economic Zone owner Yida Zhang was shot twice at the Crabbs Peninsula compound; police are pursuing a suspect amid reports of recent thefts. Youth & Workforce Health: ABWU Youth Arm marks International Youth Day with a panel on addiction’s impact on young people and the workplace, featuring health and HR professionals. Community Fundraising: Mayo Sailing Club hosts a family fun day fundraiser for Daisy Voyage and Cancer Fund for Children, supporting the planned Daisy Lodge therapeutic breaks opening in spring 2027.
