ST. GEORGE’S, GRENADA, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15, 2017 –GIS:  On behalf of the Government of Grenada, I wish to congratulate the new executive of the Grenada Union of Teachers, under the leadership of returning President, Mr. Lydon Lewis.

Your win at the polls is a strong signal of the confidence that your constituents have in you to work in their best interests.

Government values the partnership of the Trade Unions in moving this Nation forward and in ensuring that no worker is left behind.  To this end, the contributions that the GUT executive has made in recent years are noteworthy. Government especially appreciates your leadership and efforts in ensuring a fair, amicable and timely settlement for your workers was reached in the current wage and salary negotiations.

Best wishes to you on this new tenure, as you work to further your Union’s strength and leadership. We look forward to a continued cordial working relationship with your team.
