The Prime Minister of Antigua & Barbuda, Gaston Browne, has criticized Sandals Resorts International's recent lawsuit against his government, labeling it a "frivolous" attempt to delay tax obligations.
Prime Minister Browne characterised the legal action as a tactic to "tie up the process" rather than address the government's tax concerns in good faith,
He pointed out that his government's stance applies not only to Sandals but to the hotel industry at large.
The lawsuit follows a government tax assessment related to discrepancies in Antigua & Barbuda Sales Tax collection.
According to Prime Minister Browne, Sandals has been erroneously charging customers a 13% tax rate instead of the required 14%, creating a significant gap in expected revenue.
