Meanwhile, the successful New Social Housing Programme continues to deliver over 350 units and build 65 more across the island, laying a strong foundation for future housing solutions.

The Caribbean Court of Justice is a bold, self-reliant triumph of regional unity — a court built by and for the Caribbean, staffed by top judges from across the region, funded by a $100 million trust, and designed to be accessible, affordable, and independent. Unlike its colonial predecessor, it tackles everything from small civil cases to major corporate disputes while actively helping member states improve their own legal systems. Though only five CARICOM nations use it as their final appellate court, its 21-year record proves its strength — even when ruling against governments. Currently facing some controversy, it’s handling matters internally with integrity. This isn’t just a court — it’s a symbol of Caribbean ingenuity and collective power. It’s time we all fully embrace this first-class institution.

A 16-year-old has been arrested in connection with a brazen taxi robbery on Thompson Pen Road, where two suspects allegedly threatened the driver with a knife and stole his phone and wallet containing $7,000. The driver fought back, disarmed one attacker, unbuckled himself, and leapt from the moving cab — a gutsy move that saved his life. Police have nabbed the teen, but his accomplice remains at large — anyone with info is urged to come forward.
