Nevisians can expect continued emphasis in every area of people empowerment through social and economic transformations. Premier of Nevis Hon. Joseph Parry made the disclosure as he ushered in the New Year in a televised and radio address on January 01, 2008.
He described 2007 as a year with much success, as his team of Hon. Hensley Daniel, Hon. Robelto Hector, Hon Dwight Cozier and Hon. Carlisle Powell worked tirelessly to make life better for all Nevisians.
The island’s Senior Citizens he said had been the highest priority for the Nevis Island Administration and in 2008 it would continue to give its fullest support to them and seek to strengthen family bonds in each community as the great significance of family and family life continued to be highlighted.
In the area of training, Mr. Parry said a number of initiatives to address unqualified persons who left school. In the aftermath of short courses designed by the Ministry of Social Transformation and the Small Enterprise Development Unit (SEDU) in 2007, the matter he said would be addressed in a more strategic fashion and a small team from a training institution in Trinidad would visit Nevis.
