answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/06/2020 answer text <p>The UK does not have a bilateral development programme in St. Kitts and Nevis as it is a high income country and therefore not eligible for Official Development Assistance (ODA). However, we are providing technical support through the International Monetary Fund Caribbean Regional Technical Assistance Centre (CARTAC) to St. Kitts and Nevis to strengthen financial stress testing frameworks for the insurance sector. CARTAC is also helping to strengthen financial sector regulation and supervision by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank over the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union.</p> answering member constituency Aldridge-Brownhills answering member printed Wendy Morton question first answered 23/06/2020 14:58:16 answering member 4358 label Biography information for Wendy Morton
