The Government of Grenada has received a loan from the International
Bank for Reconstruction and Development in the amount of USD 1,140,000
equivalent, and has received a credit from the International
Development Association in the amount of USD 2,660,000 equivalent
toward the cost of the Emergency Recovery Project, and it intends to

International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and
International Development Association will be governed by the

The proposed project aims to assist the OECS member state of Grenada

tourism promotion through 2002 by way of a regional campaign; (b)
maintenance of critical fuel imports necessary to keep tourism-related
facilities operational during the recovery period; (c) additional
enhancements to port and airport security, necessary to maintain
secure transportation linkages to major markets and to preserve the
sub-region's image as a safe tourist destination; and (d) further
improvements to the administration of off-shore financial and business
services in line with recent international agreements. In support of
the above program, Bank assistance will consist of a lending operation
with the following objectives: (i) to help safeguard and maintain the
productive capacity of the tourist sector in the aftermath of the
September 11 terrorist attacks in the US; (ii) to enhance security at
key airport and seaport facilities in line with emerging international
standards with the aim of preventing further acts of terrorism and
safeguarding the sub-region's image as a safe tourist destination; and
(iii) to strengthen the country's institutional capacity to adopt,
develop and implement security plans, procedures and measures as
mandated by international civil aviation and maritime transport
regulatory agencies.
