AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

House of Assembly Politics: Opposition leader Marlon Penn says the government’s move to push the Question-and-Answer segment down the Order Paper during the Virgin Islands Recovery and Development Agency (Amendment) Bill debate is an abuse of power and blocks Opposition members from questioning the executive for 11 months. Public Health & Consumer Watch: Federal officials issued a recall of nearly 1.6 million dozen white and brown shell eggs over possible Salmonella Enteritidis contamination, urging shoppers to check carton identifiers and sell-by dates. USVI Maritime Costs: Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett warns the USVI could retaliate with tariffs on BVI residents traveling to St Thomas for groceries, after steep charter yacht fee increases allegedly hurt the marine industry and cost about 800 jobs. Local Security & Business Impact: St. Croix residents are outraged after a four-person masked burglary crew hit nine commercial and residential targets in La Grande Princesse within 24 hours, prompting a major VIPD investigation. Women’s Entrepreneurship Funding: The SBA launched a $6M Women’s Business Center Modernization Initiative, with the US Virgin Islands included among targeted states/territories; proposals are due Aug. 10. Regional Connectivity: Contour Airlines announced new nonstop Dominica–Trinidad service starting Oct. 5, with same-plane one-stop connections onward to San Juan and St. Thomas.
