CABINET NOTES: The Cabinet invited the Head of the United Taxi Association and his Deputy to address some misunderstanding regarding payments to the Transport Board.
The Association was of the view that they were exempt from the new user-fee that is being imposed on all cars operating on the streets of Antigua and Barbuda.
The Cabinet confirmed what the Association had been told by the Antigua and Barbuda Transport Board, that each vehicle is required to pay the equivalent of $2.00 per week ($100 per year) which will go into a separate fund to repay a $100 million dollar loan from the banks, for road repairs.
There was agreement on moving forward on this point.
The taxi drivers reminded the Cabinet that roads leading to certain identified hotels are in need of urgent repairs.
The Cabinet took note of the proposed repairs and indicated its willingness to share with the Ministry of Works.

Road to York’s Bay, Pearns Point, Hermitage Bay Hotel is long overdue for paving. The residents along that road from Jennings Extension are eating dust every day making for a very unhealthy situation which has been overlooked/ignored by the Parliamentary Representative, who is the Minister of Health.
What do our Tourism officials have to say about that when the guests to our island have to traverse this bad “road” eating the dust along the way. Does not make for healthy reviews.
PLEASE FIX THE ROAD
“Cabinet indicated it’s willingness to share with the Ministry of Works”
Cabinet should have instructed the Ministry to commence repairs immediately
Realistically to what extent will this $100m satisfy our need for better roads in this country? If this money is to be used on All Saints Road at all, then most of it is already used up before the check is cashed.
