PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - Newly re-elected Grenadian Prime Minister, Dr Keith Mitchell, has one of the more challenging assignments of any political leader in the region. One of the immediate challenges that the Prime Minister faces is to increase the island’s output because, according to the Caribbean Development Bank’s 2012 annual report, output in Grenada fell last year. What’s more, the CDB estimated that the number of stayover tourists visiting Grenada fell by 5.1 per cent in 2012. Tourist arrivals also declined by 6.2 per cent in Barbados, 2.3 per cent in Anguilla (January to November) and 2 per cent in St Lucia.
