Basseterre, St. Kitts, December 24, 2018 (SKNIS): The Dr. Timothy Harris-Led Team Unity Administration is expressing high confidence that a Motion of No Confidence (MONC) brought by the Leader of the Opposition, Dr. Denzil Douglas, will be defeated in the National Assembly on Christmas Eve, the day that the Government launched its historic Poverty Alleviation Programme bringing joy and smiles to households that make less than EC$3,000 per month. Additionally, ten days ago public servants were given an extra month’s salary, commonly known as a “double salary” making it three years in a row and something never done by any administration in the country’s history.
