The practice of inviting experts to Cabinet continues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The Cabinet invited a medical doctor who is playing a role in establishing a Stem Cell Center, to provide the new scientific treatment to prospective clients. The issue of the taxes and registration fees to be charged the Center and the patients was the basis of the Cabinet\u2019s discussion. The doctor was persuaded that as a \u201cpioneer industry\u201d, there ought to be no taxes levied against the Center or the treatment for which the patient pays.\u00a0 Members of Cabinet were of the view that there ought to be a registration fee for each of the Centers, and an ABST tax for the treatment administered. The Stem Cell \u201cindustry\u201d is very lucrative, the Cabinet members remarked; therefore, whatever risks are associated with its operation, the Treasury ought to receive sufficient resources that would not result in subsidizing the \u201cindustry.\u201d At the end of a very intensive debate, it was agreed that fees for the Centers will be reduced, and ABST will attach to each treatment. The Cabinet will also appoint an official to oversee the operation of Stem Cell Centers and doctors involved in the new treatment, in Antigua and Barbuda.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>The Cabinet was provided an assessment of the Covid-19 situation by the Minister of Health. He asserted that the protocols and other provisions mandated by Cabinet have worked very well. The vaccinations of approximately 35,000 adults in Antigua and Barbuda have been a major factor in keeping the disease at very low rates. The latest dashboard showed that there were zero new cases, zero persons hospitalized for Covid, and only 3 active cases of Covid-19 in the nation at this time. The decision by the United States CDC to place the country in Category 1 status, evidences the success of the policies of the Cabinet. The British would also have been informed, such that Antigua and Barbuda can be considered for moving from Amber to Green, in its evaluation of states. These assessments are very helpful to the recovery of tourism, the Minister noted. More residents and nationals must still be vaccinated; 5,000 additional residents are to be vaccinated before 30 June 2021 when that many vials of the AstraZenica in storage will expire. The inducements to vaccinate include the raffle of a parcel of land at Judges Hill, valued at more than EC$68,000. All those who present themselves for first or second dose vaccinations are eligible for the raffle. Non-nationals who are out-of- time, and who present themselves for vaccination will receive an extension of four months; the Cabinet has made arrangements with the Immigration Department to eliminate several requirements: i. the purchase of a return ticket; ii. Presentation of a Police Report; and iii. full payment of arrears (a payment plan is to be applied).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>The Chairman of Cabinet noted that the President of the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) will hold face-to-face discussions on Friday, June 11, 2021, on a series of important matters including a $50 million dollar loan which Antigua and Barbuda hopes to receive in the struggle against Covid-19. The CDB has also been a pivotal partner in the financing of LIAT over the years, and is owed significant sums by the four state-owners of the regional airline. Other issues are to be raised by the Chairman.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>The Cabinet held a brief discussion on the Choksi matter, on the investigation into his claim of abduction, and the decisions rendered thus far by the Magistrate and the High Court of Dominica. No new information has emanated from the Dominica authorities that now hold Mr. Choksi\u2019s fate in their hands. The authorities in Antigua continue their investigation of Choksi\u2019s claim that he was abducted in Antigua. Since abductions and kidnappings are not crimes usually reported in Antigua, no effort is being spared to uncover all the facts in this supposed abduction.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>5.i. The Cabinet took a decision, acting under The Antigua and Barbuda Constitution Order 1981, to establish an Election Boundaries Commission consisting of four commissioners, three of whom are to be named by the Government and one by the Opposition. The Government\u2019s three Commissioners include: Hilroy Humphreys (Chairman), Garfield Christopher (Member), and Ivor Ford (Member). The Opposition is invited to nominate one member.<\/p><div id=\"antig-3718190765\" class=\"antig-content_4 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/discoverflow.co\/web\/antigua\" aria-label=\"ANU CVP Digital Broadband 1200x400_1\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1201\/h:401\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ANU-CVP-Digital-Broadband-1200x400_1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1201\/h:401\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ANU-CVP-Digital-Broadband-1200x400_1-1.jpg 1201w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:100\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ANU-CVP-Digital-Broadband-1200x400_1-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1024\/h:342\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ANU-CVP-Digital-Broadband-1200x400_1-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:256\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ANU-CVP-Digital-Broadband-1200x400_1-1.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" width=\"1201\" height=\"401\"   \/><\/a><\/div><div id=\"antig-1132919834\" class=\"antig-content_12 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ablpag\" aria-label=\"ABLP_Red-&#038;-Reddy_Web_1000x250\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ABLP_Red-Reddy_Web_1000x250.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ABLP_Red-Reddy_Web_1000x250.png 1000w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:75\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ABLP_Red-Reddy_Web_1000x250.png 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:192\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ABLP_Red-Reddy_Web_1000x250.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" width=\"1000\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>5.ii.
