The Ministry of Tourism, Civil Aviation and Sustainable Development is set to implement a Digital Border Solution as part of its 'Love SVG 100 Projects' initiative.
The announcement was made by Minister of Tourism, Civil Aviation and Sustainable Development, Dr. Hon. Kishore Shallow, during a recent radio programme.
Dr. Shallow said the new initiative followed a visit to Saint Kitts and Nevis by a delegation from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, led by Permanent Secretary in the Ministry responsible for National Security, Immigration and Disaster Management, Michelle Forbes, along with the Chief Immigration Officer.
Minister Shallow noted that Saint Kitts and Nevis has the leading application software solution in the caribbean.
Minister Shallow added: "It is part of our 'Love SVG 100 Projects' initiative Digital Border Solution, they have, for me, the leading application software solution in the caribbean. Those guys, they have already engaged with us, they have done a presentation to Cabinet. We are considering just two (2) weeks ago a delegation from Saint Vincent lead by the Permanent Secretary of the National Security and Immigration ministry, PS Michelle Forbes, along with the Immigration Chief, they went to Saint Kitts to actually look at that solution. I had the opportunity earlier this year to see both the front and he back room of that, I had a full presentation of it and I believe not too long from now we're probably likely to develop that same solution."
