Last update: 3 hours ago

Utility Relief & Household Support: PM Terrance Drew announced SKELEC’s “Reconnect 15” promotion and a Water Services reconnection programme to help families clear arrears and restore electricity and water. Back-to-School Spending Relief: The government also rolled out an EC$250 Back-to-School Voucher Programme for eligible students for 2026–2027, adding direct help as prices stay high. Housing & Health Upgrades: NHC St. Kitts opened applications for home sanitary upgrades, aiming to improve safer, healthier living conditions. Tourism & Jobs: St. Kitts surpassed one million cruise passengers for the first time since COVID-19, reaching 1,002,282 year-to-date, with officials linking the rebound to stronger port capacity and renewed partner confidence. Local Business/Construction Watch: PLP deputy leader Dameon Lawrence questioned whether the $270m Basseterre High School project is delivering local construction jobs, citing concerns about who is operating the site’s major equipment. Finance & Crime: Three men were charged in connection with computer-related fraud and money laundering schemes, with police stressing continued action against cyber and financial crime. Regional Economy: ECLAC forecasts Caribbean growth at 5.6% in 2026, but only 1.1% without Guyana—placing St. Kitts and Nevis at about 2.0% growth in 2026. Sports & Business Culture: CPL action continues as Antigua & Barbuda Falcons host Trinbago Knight Riders, while St. Kitts’ cruise and community momentum keeps feeding local vendors and service providers.
