Premier of the Turks and Caicos Islands has announced what he referred to as a one-time grant relief package of $1,000 for Turks and Caicos Islanders and British Overseas Territory Citizens (BOTC).
The premier made the announcement during his contribution in the House of Assembly on Tuesday. He said the decision was made by his administration under consideration that the cost of living over the summer has been ‘brutal’, pointing out that grant is a cost-of-living package to support the people.
“And so, each Turks and Caicos Islander and BOT Citizens, before Christmas, a one-time grant of $1,000,” the premier said.
