Prime Minister Mia Mottley says her administration has provided about $94 million in relief to help Barbadians cope with rising living costs driven by global economic pressures, including higher energy prices linked to the conflict in Iran.
Addressing supporters and party officials at the Barbados Labour Party’s 87th Annual Conference on Saturday evening, Mottley outlined a series of measures introduced to cushion households from rising electricity, fuel and commodity costs.
“Since April, this government provided $40 million in cost-of-living cash credit to 57 985 Barbadians,” Mottley said.
