Going to this budget, you will see some very far-reaching and progressive policy initiatives that the government will present to the people of Dominica, which will cause there to be a reduction of the goods on the shelves and many other things, and also ensuring that the taxpaying grouping within the country would see even further relief, announced the Prime Minister of Dominica.
Skerrit added that discussions will also touch on the ongoing projects in Dominica and explain how they fit into the Government's broader vision for the country's future development.
