Prime Minister Gaston Browne has defended the government\u2019s decision to write off utility arrears for struggling households, describing the measure as a necessary intervention to support vulnerable citizens rather than a political gesture.<\/p>

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

Speaking on Pointe FM\u2019s Browne and Browne Show<\/em>, Browne confirmed that the policy will apply to individuals whose electricity, water or landline services have been disconnected for more than six months, with the government moving to wipe those outstanding balances and restore service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThose of you who have arrears for water, electricity and landlines for more than six months, we wipe off your arrears and you start afresh,\u201d Browne said.<\/p>

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

The prime minister said the initiative is specifically targeted at persons facing genuine hardship and will not extend to commercial entities.<\/p>

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

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t apply to business clients. Only individuals who evidently are going through hardships\u2026 they can\u2019t pay for electricity. We wipe off their arrears and we reconnect them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Browne pushed back against criticism that the measure is unfair to those who have kept up with their payments, arguing that the policy is designed to assist those in extreme financial difficulty.<\/p>

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

\u201cYou\u2019re talking about people who are practically indigent,\u201d he said. \u201cIt takes a person who is practically indigent not to pay and not to have electricity for over six months.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that the policy is not new, noting that a similar approach was implemented after his administration took office in 2014, when arrears were cleared and disconnected households were reconnected.<\/p>

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

According to Browne, that earlier move did not harm the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA), but instead improved its financial position.<\/p>

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

\u201cYou think it did anything to APUA? \u2026 APUA revenues increased, because now the people who weren\u2019t paying started paying,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prime minister also framed the measure as a safety issue, pointing to risks faced by households without electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He recalled a past incident in which a family relying on candles lost their home in a fire, resulting in the deaths of two children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow can we, as leaders in a society, see these kind of difficulties and not address them?\u201d Browne said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Browne said the waiver is part of a broader effort to ensure that all citizens benefit from national development, particularly those at the lower end of the income scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEveryone must share in the gains of this country\u2026 we have to look after the poor and indigent too,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government is expected to implement the measure alongside reconnection efforts, allowing affected households to resume service without the burden of longstanding debt.<\/p>\n
