MP Lewis Condemns PM’s Failure to Act Before Demolitionof Locally Owned Beach Bar

I emphatically condemn Gaston Browne’s failure to act in the interest of Mr. Peter Kelsick, before the demolition of his longstanding beach bar at Halcyon Cove.

Mr. Kelsick’s bar had been in continuous operation for decades, making a valuable contribution to our tourism product.

Commonsense would dictate that Gaston Browne should have withheld the authorisation for the demolition of Mr. Kelsick’s property until all reasonable efforts at negotiation, finding alternative approaches, or securing fair compensation were exhausted.

This is yet another instance where the Prime Minister has displayed his complete lack of concern for the plight of local entrepreneurs, at a time when unemployment and crime are steadily rising.

Now that the damage has been done, I call on the Prime Minister to immediately engage Mr. Kelsick and the property developer, and work to secure a fair compensation payment for the demolished property.

Richard S. Lewis MP
