AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Cabinet & Health Leadership: Prime Minister Philip Davis swore in 15 ministers, including Dr. Michael Darville as Minister of Health and Wellness, as new appointments sparked an online debate over the Gaming Act’s family/board restrictions. Immigration Enforcement: The Department of Immigration deported 107 Haitian nationals to Cap-Haïtien and removed 15 other foreign nationals, citing overstays and illegal landing offences, with health and safety protocols reported during removals. Aviation Safety & Justice: A Bahamian passenger linked to the Bahamas-to-Florida crash was arrested on cocaine import conspiracy charges, while survivors from the ditching off Florida were treated after hours on a life raft. Public Health Tech in the Region: Saint Lucia completed rapid PCR testing rollout with CARPHA support, aiming to speed outbreak detection—an upgrade that could matter for regional preparedness. Food Safety Watch: A separate inspection roundup flagged restaurants with 30+ violations, underscoring ongoing pressure on day-to-day hygiene and temperature control. Community Notes: Obituaries for John Stitt and Joyce Highsmith Jones closed out the week’s local remembrance.
