BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS, FEBRUARY 29TH 2012 (CUOPM) -Treasury Bills issued by the Federal Government of St. Kitts and Nevis and the Nevis Island Administration (NIA) are not affected by the debt restructuring programme.

This has been emphasised by Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, the Right Hon. Dr. Denzil L. Douglas.

“If there were other ways in which I could get this point across, I would try them, but for now, I think the best way to make this point, really, is to stress once again, in the clearest possible terms, that Federal and Nevis Island Administration Treasury Bills are in NO WAY – absolutely no way – affected by this debt restructuring milestone,” said Dr. Douglas during his radio call in programme “Ask the Prime Minister” on Tuesday.
