AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Regional Transport & Trade: CARICOM leaders are reviving talks on a regional ferry service, with Trinidad and Tobago’s existing vessel proposed as a pilot while a private sector operation is developed—aimed at cutting transport costs across the bloc. Parenting & Education: Barbados educator Sandie Field-Kellman is urging parents to get children evaluated early, warning that reading struggles can show up by ages 15 and 16 if help comes too late. STEM for Kids: West Terrace Primary won the 2026 Barbados Light and Power Battle of the Bots, edging defending champions Christ Church Girls’ School in the coding and robotics competition. Tourism & Culture Business: Tourism Minister Ian Gooding-Edghill opened Connect Barbados 2026, stressing cultural preservation and partnerships, while the conference later closed with record buyer participation and awards spanning heritage, culinary, sports and media. Air Travel: Sunrise Airways launches direct Antigua–Barbados flights from July 22, with intro fares (one-way from US$129; round-trip from US$299). Health Watch: Barbados’ CMO says there are no new cases of scarlet fever, chicken pox or monkeypox after investigations into earlier school-related illness reports. Community & Safety: Police are seeking wanted man Ian Alleyne Farrell for questioning, advising him to report to the Criminal Investigations Department with an attorney. Regional Mobility: Barbados and Guyana begin passport-free travel using national ID cards from July 1, with passport rules still applying for children under 16.
