Cabinet Notes: The Cabinet reiterated its earlier decision regarding work permits.
Those holding work permits that expire will have the opportunity to renew the permits.
There will be no issuance of work permits to those who never had a work permit.
The vacancies are to be advertised and those nationals who qualify are to be given the opportunity to apply to fill the post, the Cabinet repeated.

It’s about time. Get the illegals out.
You are an illegal in this world ….
Having a work permit definitely does not make you illegal. It makes you very legal if you didnt know before!
Not so fast,people of Antigua and Barbuda.New Work Permits are still being offered to foreign workers from a country in South East Asia.To work in Antigua and Barbuda at this time.I am not referring to renewals of existing Work Permits.While Nationals are home on the breadlines.That should not be allowed to happen.People wake up out of your slumber.If we do not.We could find our Country gone to those people.While we were sleeping.We would become like strangers in our homeland.Speaking many foreign languages,none of which would be understood by us.We need to stand up now and be counted.We need to stand for something.
Your comment is a lie..
My comment is not a LIE.So keep on drinking your poison,Jack Daniel.
That supermarket shelves require a particular skill set that is found only in phillipines. How can a govt sign work permits for persons coming from soo far to pack oranges.
Its so sad what is happening in this place. You shop at first choice its like you in Dominica.
They come here with their Labour party indoctrination. Although skerrit made it impossible for them thrive in their native land.
Like you have a problem with Dominicans, let talk about them Antiguans that in America, England and Canada turning dog in other people homeland and they afraid to come back here talk about that allure always quick to talk about foreigners and forget y’all does go and clean people shit and live in basements to make a living . Stfu
@Juju Beard:The folks from Dominica and Montserrat have been a part of our society in Antigua for over 70 plus years.Unlike those “just come” from places like China,Philippines and other Caribbean Islands.So give them a break.
Am here in Antigua. Dominica you come out go back and help skerritt. Dont let him run you
They are lying NEW Work Permits are still being signed.
Juju (whatever u call yourself)…… the article clearly wasn’t about your gripe with Skerritt so take your hurt elsewhere!
@zire ok thanks for directions
I’m not saying everyone, but if y’all know how to work efficiently then there’s no need for foreigners to come here. There’s a lot of lazy and rude local workers here and that’s a FACT (even government staff) and that’s bad for business and employers see that. Even I would want to hire local manpower but I need my business to grow and the only option I see is get workers somewhere else. The “antiguan time” that y’all so proud of isn’t even helping one bit.
I agree with Smurf
