CCC Imposes Vat On Rental At Vendors Arcade

The Castries City Council (CCC) has reportedly ended vat subsidies on leases at the Castries vendors’ arcade.

Tenants will now have to dole out an extra 15% to settle monthly payments.

The vendors, who are livid, claim the authorities did not warn them.

Nevertheless, the CCC maintains the change in policy is in keeping with the business approach to running the affairs of the Castries City Council.
