Chairperson of the St Lucia National Trust, Dr. Vasantha Chase, stated at a recent membership meeting that many of the Trust’s ‘big ticket’ projects are at risk and some have been placed on hold. She made reference to the Walcott Place Project for which the Trust was advised that funding has been suspended for Phase 2 under which an interpretation centre, gift shop, café, workshop and lecture room would have been constructed.

Senior Communications Officer in the Office of the Prime Minister, Nicole Mc Donald, says the project has not been suspended.
