The aim is to ensure a more equitable distribution of tourism benefits among all stakeholders. Saint Lucians will be provided with assistance to invest in and take ownership of different aspects of the tourism industry, whether it involves attractions like waterfalls, beaches, and forests or ventures such as Airbnb accommodations. Under the new regulations, tourism authorities will be held responsible for their actions, leading to a more transparent and efficient administration of the sector.
