Madam Speaker, I am pleased to provide an update on the work progress at the Burt Point Waste Water Treatment Plant.

As Minister of Communications and Works, this is indeed a great occasion to be here at this contract signing ceremony to kick start the major works associated with the East End Long Look Sewerage project.  The signing of this contract signals the clear intent by the Government of the Virgin Islands to complete the East End Long Look Sewerage project. 

As all of you know I have been passionate about driving the growth of the financial services sector for most of my working life.
