Jaundy Martin was sworn in on Friday as Attorney General of St. Vincent and the Grenadines for a second time, replacing Grenville Williams, who stepped down to run in the November 27 general election under the ruling Unity Labour Party banner. The ceremony occurred at Government House in Montrose, with Governor General Dame Susan Dougan presiding.

Martin previously held the post from 2017 to 2022 and resumes it on an interim basis through the election period. His earlier tenure included overseeing the controversial 2021 public sector vaccine mandate, which triggered a legal battle ultimately reversed on appeal, with a potential referral to the Privy Council pending next week.

Williams, who assumed the role in 2022, is now seeking elected office against New Democratic Party incumbent Nigel “Nature” Stephenson. Martin’s return maintains legal continuity as the country approaches a tightly contested vote, with the ULP aiming for a sixth straight term after its narrow 2020 win.
