C AST RI ES, Saint Lucia October 31, 2013 The United Workers Party remains baffled by comments made by the Minister of Commerce, Business Development, Investment and Consumer Affairs and Parliamentary Representative for Gros Islet, Hon. Emma Hippolyte, during her interview with CHOICE NEWS NOW last week. In her response to a Television Commercial (TVC) showing a clip of her promise to discontinue gambling should the Saint Lucia Labour Party win the 2011 General Election, Ms. Hippolyte categorically stated that she still does not support gambling.
In light of her response, the Party, and by extension the People of Saint Lucia request that Hon. Emma Hippolyte explain why her Ministry would renew Trade Licenses for Gambling Machines and increase the numbers on the island if she passionately opposes the practice of gambling.
