REPAIRS to schools across the Turks and Caicos Islands are taking precedence over a number of scheduled capital projects for the 2017-2018 financial year.<\/p>\n

This was reported by Premier Sharlene Cartwright Robinson in response to questions put to her by Akierra Missick, elected member for the Leeward and Long Bay constituency during the House of Assembly sitting on Monday (January 29).<\/p>\n

Missick requested that the premier report to the House on the list of completed capital projects from the capital projects budget from the period of April 1, 2017 to October 31, 2017, the total number of projects contracted, and which projects listed will experience delays and meet completion deadlines.<\/p>\n

The capital budget is a three year rolling budget in which projects are committed over more than one financial year.<\/p>\n

Projects committed since 2016 to date are \u2013 police boats, renovation to all Royal TCI Police Force buildings, hosting of CDB board of Governors meeting, upgrading of sporting facilities throughout the Islands, upgrading up schools, South Caicos sports and recreational centre, construction and furnishing of new to Eliza Simmons Primary, Long Bay High school phase three, Post Office redevelopment, homes for domestic violence, road development phase two, community clinic in Bottle Creek, environmental health storage buildings and mental health home phase two.<\/p>\n
