Grenada’s Prime Minister reshuffles Cabinet

As I said during the swearing in of ministers in February 2013, the ministerial appointments are not meant to be permanent — and that there may be need to adjust the configurations from time to time.

Those adjustments will be made for a number of reasons — including giving members of our multi-talented team different experiences; to be sensitive to the twin demands of being an MP and a member of cabinet; and to seek to use skill sets and experiences  in a way that will be most beneficial and fitting for the new challenges that we will confront at each stage.

As we get ready for a new budgetary period and a new year; and as we move into our third year — we believe that this presents us with a unique opportunity to enact some change in the arrangement for the reasons just stated.

And so we are moving with immediate effect to make changes to both the ministerial portfolios, as well as the configuration in the Senate.
