Good day to all in the Virgin Islands.  I am sad to share that Kim Hollis, a Queen’s Counsel who has served the Territory as the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) since 2016, has decided to leave the public service in December as a result of the need for her to take care of an ailing family member.

Greetings to all in the Virgin Islands and especially to the members of the public service, for whom I have a message that should be encouraging: The Government of the Virgin Islands continues to make progress on the project to retrofit the Central Administration Complex.

Fellow Virgin Islanders and Residents, A pleasant good day to each and every one of you. It is my pleasure as the Minister responsible for Transportation, Works and Utilities, to provide this update on the progress made by your government on the journey towards restoring the Central Administration Complex following the extensive damage caused by Hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017.

Plans are in place to launch Customer Service Touch Terminals throughout the Territory as part of the overall transformation of the Public Service.
