AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Tobago Budget Watch: The Tobago House of Assembly is seeking a record $4.12B for fiscal 2027, with business leaders calling it “light at the end of the tunnel” but warning the real test is execution and construction/tourism capacity. Energy & Industry: The Energy Chamber of T&T and Suriname’s energy chamber signed an MoU at SEOGS 2026, pushing private-sector supply-chain and local content links across the southern Caribbean. Power & Legal Pressure: T&TEC has threatened to sue MP Keith Scotland and attorney Keisha Kydd-Hannibal over a bid to recover about $2.4M in unpaid electricity charges from Flavorite Foods. Public Service Digital Push: Minister Dominic Smith says the government is advancing a “future-ready” public service through Future Ready TT and digital credentials like VerifyTT. Labour/Backpay Debate: PSA is challenging the State’s backpay mix, proposing more cash and benefits like food cards and fuel assistance. Security Partnership: Defence Minister Wayne Sturge backs US Navy SEAL support for crime-fighting training, rejecting sovereignty concerns. Local Business Scaling: UTC launched the sixth cohort of Scale Up TT’s Scalerator, citing $600M+ revenue and nearly 2,000 jobs from past cohorts.
