PM Skerrit then noted the second initiative is focused on reviewing Dominica’s minimum wage, for which the work of establishing and organizing a Public-Private Sector Committee is underway.

The program will provide policy recommendations that will facilitate the enhanced review of the corporate income tax and minimum wage.  

A contract by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Blue Green Economy was also signed with Ace Engineering Ltd on 10th January, to facilitate the construction of a Citrus Certification Facility in Londonderry.

This marks a major shift for positioning the country as one of the leading citrus providers across the Caribbean region.
