Opposition Calls Gov’t Economic Growth Policy ‘An Admission of Failure’

Opposition Spokesman on Investment and Trade, Anthony Hylton, has described the government’s policy to boost the economy, as an admission of failure.

Mr Hylton was reacting to the presentation of portfolio Minister, Senator Aubyn Hill, in his recent State of the Nation address in parliament.

According to Senator Hill, the country must increase its exports in order for any meaningful growth in the economy to be achieved.

He outlined that the country has failed to address its trade deficit for far too long.

But Mr Hylton says the government ought to be blamed for this inaction.
