Minister for Housing Melissa Poponne Skerrit has stated that close to 2 million dollars has been allocated to the Salisbury Constituency to assist with housing.

Mrs Skerrit responded to the Salisbury MP who previously stated in parliament that while she welcomes the government housing project, the Salisbury constituency has not benefited from this project.

The housing minister dismissed that claim, stating that housing is a right and it is for everyone across Dominica.
