Meaningful Momentum: First Year Anniversary Update
19 May 2026 | Report

One year ago, the people of the Cayman Islands voted for the candidates they believed would best represent their interests, effect change where it mattered most and lead our country with integrity and vision. The result was a diverse group of members from different parties and backgrounds who put egos aside for the good of the country – and that is the strength of the National Coalition For Caymanians Government. As a coalition, we bring different perspectives and priorities to the table, but we are united in working together, on your behalf, for a stronger, fairer Cayman Islands.

The NCFC Government is now one year into a four-year term – one year since we gathered for our first Cabinet meeting, and six months operating under our own Strategic Policy Statement and Budget. This is just the beginning.
