ST. VINCENT-ECONOMY-Opposition leader wants re-think on economic citizenship programme

Aug 13, 2013

KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, CMC – Opposition Leader Arnhim Eustace is calling on the St. Vincent and the Grenadines government to re-think its position on the issue of economic citizenship programme. The Ralph Gonsalves government repealed the citizenship by investment (CIP) programme soon after it came to power in 2001 and Prime Minister Gonsalves has already said he has no intention of following other Caribbean countries in providing the programme that is aimed at luring foreign investors. But Eustace, speaking on his radio programme said that the government should re-think the policy given the recent decision by Grenada to enact legislation providing for economic citizenship.
