AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Barbados Road Safety: CG United’s Randy Graham warns that “pirate” passenger transport in private vehicles leaves drivers and riders exposed because private insurance won’t cover fee-paying passengers, urging urgent action against unlicensed operators on the ABC Highway and Speightstown routes. Public Health & Schools: Health officials say a suspected scarlet fever case at a St Michael primary school is being investigated after two children tested positive for streptococcal infection, with no cause for public alarm. Child Nutrition & Junk Food Marketing: Barbados is pushing back on unhealthy food ads around schools as a new campaign targets youth obesity and the marketing loopholes that keep branded junk in education spaces. Education Access: Universal free pre-primary education for eligible three- and four-year-olds is set to begin in September, with officials stressing structured learning (not daycare). Culture & Youth: Scotiabank Junior Monarch is underway with semifinalists drawn for calypso and soca, while Legacy Foundation’s “Music and Money” program links young talent with financial literacy and entrepreneurship. Tourism & Lifestyle: Royalton Vessence Barbados opens as an adult-oriented all-inclusive with destination-led experiences, and Barbados’ rum continues to shine as Foursquare Rum Distillery racks up major IWSC Gold Outstanding medals.
