Antigua’s Special Economic Zone Amendment Bill 2024: Attorney General Highlights Police Role to Prevent State Within a State<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Attorney General Steadroy Benjamin emphasized the critical role of law enforcement in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) Amendment Bill 2024.<\/p>\n

He stressed that the proposed amendments are aimed at preventing the SEZ from becoming a “state within a state.”<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The Attorney General highlighted that the presence of the commissioner of police within the SEZ’s Advisory Board is crucial.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This ensures that the SEZ remains subject to the laws and jurisdiction of Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>\n

Benjamin underscored that while the SEZ can have its own security forces for internal purposes, any breaches of the state’s laws would require intervention by the central police.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

” We can’t have a state within a state,” Attorney General Benjamin declared. He clarified that while the SEZ operates as an economic development tool, attracting foreign direct investment and promoting industries, it must remain under the purview of the country’s laws and regulations.<\/p>\n

The SEZ Amendment Bill 2024 aims to maintain law, order, and development within the SEZ, ensuring that it functions as an integral part of Antigua and Barbuda’s economic landscape without undermining the country’s sovereignty or legal framework.<\/p>

Antigua’s Special Economic Zone Amendment Bill 2024: Attorney General Explains Objectives in Parliament<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a session of the Antiguan Parliament yesterday, Attorney General Steadroy Benjamin addressed the House on the objectives of the Special Economic Zone Amendment Bill 2024. He emphasized the need to align the legislation with the current realities facing Antigua and Barbuda and to enhance the representation within the zone’s governing structures.<\/p>\n

The Attorney General highlighted that the amendment aims to broaden the composition of the Advisory Board overseeing the Special Economic Zone (SEZ). Previously, the board consisted of seven members appointed by the minister, including representatives from Customs, immigration, the business sector, and an independent person. However, experience has shown the necessity for a more diverse representation to fully realize the zone’s purpose.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the SEZ, as outlined in the original ACT passed in 2015, is to serve as an economic development tool to promote growth and investment. The SEZ seeks to attract foreign and domestic investments, along with technology, to Antigua and Barbuda. To ensure effective operation, the Attorney General’s Chambers reviewed similar legislation in other jurisdictions, including Trinidad and Tobago, Guadeloupe, and India, to tailor the amendments to Antigua and Barbuda’s unique circumstances.<\/p>\n

One significant change proposed in the amendment is the appointment of no more than nine members to the Advisory Board. These members include high-ranking officials such as the commissioner of police, commissioner of revenue, chief immigration officer, Labor Commissioner, and Controller of Customs, or their nominees. Additionally, two persons representing the SEZ license holder and one person appointed by the cabinet will be included.<\/p>\n

The Attorney General clarified that these amendments are primarily administrative in nature, aimed at ensuring the proper administration of the SEZ. They are intended to guarantee compliance with Antiguan laws related to taxation, Customs, immigration, labor, and public order. The presence of the commissioner of police within the Advisory Board is crucial to maintaining law and order within the SEZ, while also ensuring that the zone does not operate as a separate entity from the state.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, Attorney General Benjamin emphasized that the proposed amendments are essential for the continued success and development of the SEZ. He commended the House to debate the amendments, highlighting the importance of ensuring that the laws of Antigua and Barbuda are observed within the SEZ for the benefit of the country’s development.<\/p>\n
