The ceremony for the swearing in of the new Cabinet of Ministers will be held today, Aug. 5, at the Parliament Building in Castries. 

The departure from the traditional announcement at Mindoo Philip Park was necessary in order to mitigate against any possible spike in COVID-19 and to redirect finances to assist parents with back to school expenses.

LED screens will be placed in strategic positions to allow for participation of the public. The event will also be streamed LIVE via NTN Channel 122/NTN Channel 37, and the Government of Saint Lucia Facebook and YouTube pages.

The ceremony begins at 4 p.m.
