AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Digital Resilience & Data Sovereignty: Turks and Caicos Minister E. Jay Saunders will represent the region at an ECLAC-led policy dialogue in Belize on June 3, focused on protecting critical government data and keeping public services running during cyberattacks and disasters. Electric Mobility & Power Transition: UNDP hosted an e-mobility conference in Belmopan sharing results from Belize’s two-year electric bus pilot, while COP-31 president-designate Murat Kurum urged faster, wider electrification to cut fossil fuel dependence. Inflation & Cost Pressures: SIB reports April inflation rose 2.9% year-on-year, driven mainly by transport (diesel and gasoline jumps), plus higher food, electricity, and restaurant services. Labour & Skills Crunch: Belize is seeing a growing shortage of manual workers hitting construction, agriculture, tourism support and more, with employers increasingly importing labour; the Labour Ministry also moves to modernize the outdated Labour Act. Public Transport Modernization: Cabinet approved hurricane and transport measures, including a concession framework aimed at modernizing the bus industry; the Belize Bus Association says it was left out of the EV bus pilot rotation. Agriculture Revival: The Agriculture Ministry is pushing to revive citrus and is distributing fertilizer, fruit trees and planting materials in southern districts to boost food production. Hurricane Readiness: With Atlantic hurricane season starting June 1, Belizean authorities urged households and businesses to update emergency plans and supplies. Tourism & Development Planning: San Pedro leaders are pushing for an urban planning committee as growth accelerates, alongside broader coastal development controls.
