BASSETERRE, St. Kitts, August 15, 2023 (Cabinet Secretariat): Under the leadership of Prime Minister, The Honourable Dr Terrance Drew, the Cabinet Ministers convened on Monday, August 14th, 2023 and made essential decisions to enhance the well-being of our people.

The Cabinet approved-in-principle the operationalization of a new pension plan for all civil servants (including government auxiliary workers) which will guarantee that they receive mandatory benefits upon their retirement. In this regard, the Cabinet received a comprehensive presentation from Accountant-General, Mr Levi Bradshaw, who outlined the steps needed to advance the process toward effective implementation of the pension plan, in accordance with the Pensions (Amendment) Act of 2012. The Cabinet has pledged support in order to ensure enhanced standard of living and quality of life for all government employees upon retirement. More information on the new pension plan will be provided in the coming months.
