ST GEORGE’S, Grenada: Political Leader of Grenada's New National Party (NNP) Prime Minister Dr Keith Mitchell did not let down his supporters on Sunday and made some major announcements as promised. In a rally of thanksgiving and celebration for Grenada’s successful staging of Cricket World Cup 2007, the Mitchell announced some major adjustments to some ministerial portfolios, which will take effect on May 15. Mitchell will take up his duty as Finance Minister once more, while the current Minister of Finance Anthony Boatswain will now be responsible for a newly created Ministry that of Economic Development and Planning. That Ministry, according to Mitchell, will include business and private sector development, domestic and foreign trade, industrial development and manufacturing, the physical planning unit, and MNIB, the GIDC, and concessions among others. The Ministry of Legal Affairs will no longer be part of the responsibility of Minister Elvin Nimrod. That Ministry will now be in the hands of Labour and Education Minister Clarice Charles. Nimrod remains the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Carriacou and Petit Martinique Affairs and Grenada’s Attorney General. Tourism Minister Brenda Hood will be in charge of the Ministry of Works and Transport, while the current Works and Transport Minister Clarice Modeste Curwen will move to the Ministry of Tourism. The reshuffle, according to Mitchell, comes following consultation with members of the team, and he has already advised the Governor General to make the changes. The reshuffle of the ministers is not going down too well with the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC). Parliamentary Representative for the Town of St George Peter David said this is a clear indication corruption and trouble in the camps of the NNP. While some believe that this might not be the best move for the government to make at this time, some believe that it is a good way for the NNP to regain some of the strength lost during their four years in office.
