1. Introduction

Mr Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion standing in my name:

“Whereas it is necessary to provide for the State of Grenada for the year 2022 by means of an Appropriation Act;

A new report from the European Union Tax Observatory suggests that European banks are reaping about 14 percent of their total profits — about 20 billion euros a year — from the Virgin Islands and 16 other jurisdictions the report identified as “tax havens.”

The report’s authors say the findings will further bolster the case for a global minimum corporate tax rate proposed by the G20 in August and set for final approval next month.

Former United States Army food service sergeant and second-generation Jamaican Ayana Ashanti is the proud owner of the only Jamaican restaurant in desert country Kuwait: Taste of Jamaica. Situated in Mangaf, south of Kuwait City, the restaurant is located in her guesthouse, offering an experience of Caribbean cuisine and hospitality.

Nestled in the Gulf region, the tiny oil-rich nation has a different culinary personality from Jamaica's, offering a fusion of Indian, Persian, Mediterranean and Najdi cuisines steeped in ancient tradition.

The rains came and once again, River Road flooded. The result: disruption of life, loss and damage to property for residents, business and schools in the area, and major inconvenience to all users of the road.

River Road is a major hub in the St George’s area and a community that has served Grenada well. The St John’s River runs through River Road before emptying into the Caribbean Sea at the Green Bridge near the National Stadium. For as long as we can remember, River Road has always been an area prone to severe flooding during heavy rainfall.
