  • CCM 2010 Manifesto
    Concerned Citizens Movement Manifesto 2010 ALL THREE FOR WE LEADERSHIP YOU CAN TRUST CONCERNED CITIZENS MOVEMENT Memorializing The Life and Times of The Hon Malcolm Guishard Although we have had a by-election to fill the vacancy in St. Paul’s/St. John’s Constituency – Nevis 9, following the untimely passing of the Hon. Earl Malcolm Guishard on 12th June 2007, and the Concerned Citizens Movement was successful in retaining the seat, these are the first general elections since the death of our beloved stalwart. Much has been said about the life and times of the Hon. Malcolm Guishard or “Guish” as he was affectionately known. Notwithstanding all that has been said, much more needs to be said. The Concerned Citizens Movement is eternally grateful for the contribution he has made. His political savvy, coupled with his wellspring of energy and verve were dispensed selflessly and our Party, our beloved island of Nevis and indeed the Federation of St. Kitts/Nevis have been the beneficiaries. The Hon. Malcolm Guishard served the Concerned Citizens Movement for twenty (20) years. He served the people of Nevis in government for fourteen (14) years. He represented the Constituency of St. John’s in the Nevis Island Assembly for fourteen years. He represented the Constituency of St. Paul’s/St. John’s in the Federal Assembly for fourteen (14) years and the people of St. Kitts and Nevis for four (4) years as Leader of the Opposition in the Federal Parliament. There is perhaps no other who has consistently, passionately and vociferously championed the need for Nevis to have its own independent government than the Hon.

  • Saint Kitts and Nevis 2018 Human Rights Report
    SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS 2018 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Saint Kitts and Nevis is a multiparty parliamentary democracy and federation. Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state. The governor general is the queen’s representative in the country and certifies all legislation on her behalf. The constitution provides the smaller island of Nevis considerable self-government under a premier. In the 2015 national elections, Team Unity, a coalition of three opposition parties, won seven of the 11 elected seats in the legislature. Team Unity leader Timothy Harris was elected prime minister. Independent observers from the Organization of the American States (OAS) concluded the election was generally free and fair but called for electoral reform, noting procedural difficulties in the election process resulted in the slow transmission of results. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Human rights issues included child abuse and criminalization of same-sex activity between men, although the law was not enforced during the year. The government took steps to prosecute and convict officials who committed abuses, but some cases remained unresolved. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and Other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. b. Disappearance There were no reports of disappearances by or on behalf of government authorities. c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS 2 The constitution prohibits such practices, and there were no reports that government officials employed them.

  • 1 “No Creditors' Winding up of International Business Companies
    “No Creditors’ Winding Up of International Business Companies Formed in Nevis” Introduction The recent decision of the High Court in Nevis in the matter of Wang Ruiyun v. Gem Global Yield Fund Limited (Claim No. NEVHCV2011/0067) delivered by Mister Justice Redhead on 11 th November, 2011 emphatically states that there is no mechanism under Nevis law for a Creditor to wind up an international business company formed pursuant to the Nevis Business Corporation Ordinance 1984, as amended (“NBCO”). The Petition before the High Court in Nevis sought the winding up of a Nevis IBC by a judgment creditor which had obtained judgment against the IBC in the Hong Kong Courts. Efforts to conduct an oral examination of the directors of the company in Hong Kong proved futile as the directors were evading service. The Petitioner sued on the judgment debt in Nevis and obtained judgment in Nevis thereby converting the Hong Kong judgment to a Nevis judgment. Demands on the Company for payment proved futile. The debt was undisputed. The Judgment in Nevis had not been challenged and no payment had been made. The company had no known assets situate in Nevis. The issue then was solely one of enforcement and the Petitioner sought to wind up the Company and appoint liquidators on the basis that the Company was unable to pay its debts and or it was otherwise just and equitable for the Company to be wound up. Jurisdiction The jurisdiction of the Nevis High Court to order the winding up of a company incorporated under the provisions of the NBCO was the central question to be determined in the proceedings.
