Prime Minister Hon. Philip J. Pierre is working to reduce outstanding payables owed to government contractors and service providers in the private sector.
In March 2021, the Government of Saint Lucia owed $174 million to government contractors and service providers.
Prime Minister Pierre came to the Office in July 2021 and immediately introduced sound fiscal policy measures to address the spiralling stock of domestic arrears owed to the private sector.
Today, the Prime Minister’s fiscal policies are beginning to bear fruit. By September 2023, domestic payables have declined by more than 50% from $174 million in 2021 to $88 million.
Releasing more than $80 million worth of domestic payables into the economy promotes business continuity and stimulates growth in the private sector.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout.

Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
