During her Contribution to the 2026/2027 Budget Debate, on June 17, 2026, Minister of Culture, Arts and Heritage the Hon. Leslia Brice noted that, for many years, discussions about national development often focused on infrastructure, education, tourism, healthcare, and economic growth. “These discussions were important and necessary,” she said in the House of Assembly. “Yet, culture was frequently treated as something separate from those conversations, despite the fact that culture influences every single one of them.”
