Premier and DP target education and immigration among coalition priorities
Premier Andre Ebanks and Deputy Premier Gary Rutty outlined quick wins on immigration and education as clear targets for their first 100 days in an inaugural interview with Compass TV’s Forefront political talk show this week.
Plans for a $50 million high school on Cayman Brac will be one of the first projects tackled in line with the new coalition government’s shift in direction on education.
Both leaders highlighted the need to rethink the Brac school project among a handful of immediate priorities in the first 100 days of their new administration.
Speaking candidly on Forefront on 8 May, both men indicated education was one of the key joint priorities of the National Coalition For Caymanians.
