Additional Building Supplies to arrive in Antigua and Barbuda Next Week
Acting on the Cabinet of Antigua and Barbuda approval a few months ago of important measures to strengthen its ongoing efforts to improve housing conditions for vulnerable and low-income households across the nation, Cabinet announced the imminent arrival of critical building supplies next week set to bolster the initiative.
Central to this effort is Cabinet’s approval for the importation of a new shipment of essential building materials, which will arrive in the country next week. The materials are expected to provide timely relief and directly support the Government’s housing assistance programme, ensuring that much-needed repairs and improvements can be accelerated nationwide.
This shipment will assist less fortunate households in addressing urgent structural needs, including roof repairs, reinforcement works, and the replacement of rotting boards and leaks—helping to ensure that residents live in homes free from deterioration and unsafe conditions.
The programme has already begun island-wide distributions of lumber and other building supplies to eligible homeowners, including seniors, persons with disabilities, and families facing economic hardships. This initiative forms part of the Government’s broader social intervention aimed at upgrading the national housing stock and enhancing residential living standards.
The Government believes these actions are fully aligned with its policy objectives to ensure that every citizen has access to safe, durable, and dignified housing. By facilitating the availability of quality materials, the Administration remains committed to lifting housing standards, fostering community resilience, and empowering citizens to maintain and build their homes to modern and sustainable standards.

Truly remarkable! The work continues. #ABLP #PEOPLECENTERED
Strange…..I made an application in January, my roof is leaking and there are rotten sideboards. I am a retired with illnesses. I waited for them to give a home visit to determine exactly what help I needed. Nobody has so far called or come. I visited the office three weeks ago to find out where I am in terms of my application and in-person interview. I was told by the receptionist that ‘no disbursement of materials have as yet begun’.
I was not allowed to speak with the gentleman whom I had the interview with.
Does that mean that all that I have read in these news stories is untrue, that when I hear clips from both Mr. Turner and The Prime Minister that they are lying or that the receptionist was lying. Somebody definitely is lying.
@JOAN:PLEASE DRESS IN RED FROM HEAD TO TOES.SEE HOW FAST THEY COME.I NEVER KNEW THAT THE COLOR RED WAS CREATED BY THE ALP FOR THE ABLP.THE LATE JIM JONES CULT HAS NOTHING OVER THE ABLP.
Ok!
Additional material has arrived.
Are they for political campaigning?
How is Senator Kiz Johnson linked to the material?.
Why is she posing for photo with the material?
I had no idea that she was anything other than a senator.
Is that how tax dollars are being used for campaigning.
Time is longer than rope.
That’s my word of advice.
The UPP should have learnt from theor previous mistakes.
All those who use government material and tax dollars like their personal piggy bank will stand before whoever the judge is.
Time,
Time
Time
BRIBERY! BRIBERY! pure and simple. You people have no sort of shame. Keep people in squalor conditions and then come with plywood at election time to build cheap brug-a-dung nonsense to pretending to care. Look at the 2 of you standing beside the plywood. You all must be laughing at the jackasses when they come begging
