AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Violence and public safety: A man was killed and another injured in a shooting on Skeete’s Road, Jackmans, St Michael early Sunday, and police are urging witnesses to come forward as residents vent frustration over gun crime. Weather and sea conditions: A small craft advisory is in effect for Barbados with winds 20–25 knots and swells up to around 3.0m, easing expected mid-week. Digital government push: GovTech Barbados says it’s expanding citizen-focused online services after complaints about repeated trips, unclear documents, and trouble completing forms. Regional shocks: A strong earthquake rattled Antigua and Barbuda and nearby islands, with no immediate reports of major damage. Finance watch: Barbados regulators are monitoring millions tied to Malaysia’s 1MDB scandal after a court order froze about US$1.7m in Barbados-linked accounts. Sports and community: The Bridgetown Fire Department marked 50 years, while para-sport in T&T got fresh attention through a spotlight on elite athletes.
