PM Harris outlines how his administration got St. Kitts and Nevis on the right fiscal track

St. Kitts and Nevis’ debt-to-GDP ratio reaches the international benchmark of 60 percent under PM Harris’ history-making Team Unity administration, making it the very first independent state in the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) to achieve this important milestone.

“Some may ask how we got there,” PM Harris said.

“We got there because we were committed from the beginning to excel where our predecessor had failed,” Prime Minister Harris told the nation last Thursday, October 4th, 2018 during his monthly press conference.

“This is a herculean achievement,” PM Harris said.

“We achieved this milestone in spite of our comprehensive response in the aftermath of two Category 5 hurricanes that necessitated unbudgeted expenditures, particularly by the Ministry of National Security, Human Settlement, Education and the Public Sector Ministries, to name a few. We supported in cash the relief efforts of other countries – St. Maarten/St. Martin, Dominica, Antigua and Barbuda, and Anguilla,” Prime Minister Harris said on Thursday, adding, “Today, we are standing as the fiscally strongest country in the OECS and I’m certain within the Caribbean region, so this is a herculean achievement of which all of us must take pride.“

Win for Lodge in ‘Boys on the Ground’ James Harris T20 Cricket League’s final-four playoffs

BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS, October 8, 2018 (PLP PR Media Inc.) — It was a mixed bag of fortunes when the first two matches, of the six in the final-four playoffs, took place on Sunday October 7 at the Mansion Stadium in the ‘Boys on the Ground’ James Harris T20 Cricket League.

In a match that was reduced to 15 overs, Lodge who were runner’s up in Group ‘B’ beat Front Street Limers who were winners in Group ‘A’ in the first match by six wickets, while rain interrupted the second match between winners in Group ‘B’ Back Street and runner’s up in Group ‘A’ Molineux, which then meant that each team got a point.
