The uniqueness of the 1983 Constitution Order of St. Christopher and Nevis, gives credence for autonomy for the island of Nevis.

With five (5) single-member constituencies and a majority rule voting system for a period of five years term of assembly, the constitution allows for a composition of the Nevis Island Assembly.

As such, there are eight (8) parliamentary members who are elected and/or nominated to serve.
As a constitutional monarchy within the Commonwealth of Nations, the Federation recognizes Queen Elizabeth 11 (British Monarch) or her successor as the titular head of government.

The Monarch is represented on the island of Nevis by a Deputy Governor General appointed by the Governor General (titular head) of the Federation, who is constitutionally responsible for the government of both islands.
Since the realization of Independence in 1983, the island of Nevis is governed by an administrative division known as the Nevis Island Administration.

It also pertains to births, deaths and infant mortality rate for the past five years.

Likewise, data on marriages and divorces are part of this section.

The population throughout the last censuses has seen general declines and increases as the population continues to change with migration and immigration.

Births and deaths also contribute to changes in the population and assist in calculating the median population between censuses.

The number of deaths and births are closely linked to changes in the population in any given year.

These ranges from hypertension, diabetes, kidney disease, HIV/AIDS etc.

There are data given for the prevalence of these disease here on Nevis along with injuries recorded for patients seeking medical attention at the Alexandra Hospital.

Chronic and communicable diseases are devastating to individuals and community, threatening quality of life.
The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) noted that “the Caribbean has the highest death rates from heart disease and the top five countries for diabetes in the Americas” Among the countries in the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), heart disease ranks as the leading cause of death.

Other conditions such as cancer, stroke, diabetes, and HIV are among the leading causes of death.
With this in mind the Ministry of Health through its Health Promotion Unit provides vital data on the prevalence of diabetes, hypertension and HIV/AIDS in the Nevisian community as well as ways to reduce the risk of illnesses, diseases and injuries and encourages the general public on ways to live healthy productive lives.

Department of Statistics Annual Digest 2021 5 0 | P A G E Infrastructure Electricity Consumption & Water Consumption Department of Statistics Annual Digest 2021 5 1 | P A G E Infrastructure Under this section information is given on the number of households tallied during censuses on Nevis; number of building permits issued; titles issued and deeds registered.

Information is also presented on the electricity production and consumption as well as water consumption.
A household is a group of persons who make common provision of food, shelter and other essentials for living.

Small average household sizes, of three persons were found to be the average household on Nevis in the last census of 2011.

The number of households is calculated during a census and is updated with assistance from the Physical Planning Department and the Property Valuation Department of Inland Revenue Department.
Over the past five (5) censuses the number of households on Nevis has been steadily growing.

The characteristics of households, including their size and composition contributes to sustainable development, poverty and assists with patterns of consumption which helps to shape the human impact on the environment.

Building Permits are issued by the Physical Planning Department within the Ministry of Communication.
Building Permit is a person’s formal permission to begin the construction, demolition, addition or renovation on their property.

These permits can be commercial as well as residential.

It is the duty of the Physical Planning Department to make sure building are built to the existing codes.

Titles and deeds for properties can be found at the Registry of the Supreme Court House in Charlestown.
A Property Title is a bundle of rights in a piece of property in which a party may own either a legal interest or equitable interest.

The rights in the bundle may be separated and held by different parties.

It may also refer to a formal document, such as a deed, that serves as evidence of ownership.

A Property Deed is a written and signed legal instrument that is used to transfer ownership of real property from the old owner (the grantor) to the new owner (the grantee).
Electricity and Water production and consumption are directly linked to the size of households within an economy.

The number of persons within a household directly affects the consumption of electricity and water production on a monthly and yearly basis.

Water and electricity are also consumed by commercial properties, thus the growth in this sector will affect both production and consumption.

A vehicle registration plate, also known as a number plate or a license plate is metal or plastic plate attached to a motor vehicle for official identification purposes.

All countries require registration plates for road vehicles such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles.

Here on Nevis vehicles licenses are done according to the month that corresponds to the last digit of the license plate.
It is a legal requirement in Nevis for ALL types of motor vehicle to be registered if they are to be used on the public road.

All new and imported vehicles are required to be registered and this is administered by the Traffic Department of the Police Force in conjunction with The Inland Revenue Department.

A potential driver is given a written test, to test the knowledge of how to operator a vehicle on the public road and to test the potential driver’s knowledge of road use and signs.
Once this test has been passed the potential driver is then taken on a road test to prove their skills in maneuvering the vehicle and adhering to traffic signs.

During any given year there are a number of traffic accidents that occurs.

This information is captured by the Traffic Department within the Police Force showing the various types of traffic accidents that occurred.

The movement of passengers and cargo by aircraft has become the primary means of common carrier traveling.

Sea Transportation refers to movement of goods and passengers on waterways by using various means like boats, steamers, launches and ships.
The movement of person, goods and services between the twin island Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, the region and internationally continues to impact economic growth.

Labour, but particularly income and employment indicators are critical in analyzing economic and social progress at both the macro and the micro levels.

Without these, no meaningful assessment of development performance is complete.

Therefore, it is critical for each country to have timely information on labour and income aspects of the development process.

Labour force comprises of people ages 15 and older who supply labor for the production of goods and services during a specified period.
It includes both the employed and the unemployed.

In general the labor force includes the unemployed, and first-time job-seekers, but excludes homemakers and other unpaid caregivers and workers in the informal sector.

Over the years the Labour Force has changed with an aging population and the influx of other nationalities.
With the introduction of Free Movement under the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas provides for the free movement of non-wage earners, either as service providers and/or to establish businesses, including managerial, supervisory and technical staff, and their spouses and immediate family members.

This has led to an increase in the Labour Force on Nevis.

Agriculture continues to be the backbone industry for human sustainability on Nevis, despite the increase levels of the importation of basic food crops.

The Agriculture Industry on Nevis has and continues to provide job opportunities which eventually helps to build strong sustainable local and national economies.
Agriculture is the science or practice of farming, including cultivation of the soil for the growing of crops and the rearing of animals to provide food, other products and marketing of the resulting products.

Agriculture continues to be the key sector which contributes to Nevis’ GDP in a given year, thus the Department of Agriculture and its subsidiaries, are the entities which generate such income from harvested crops, marketing, distribution and trading.
Agriculture provides a livelihood for many and contributes to food and nutrition security.

There has been a growing interest from tourism-related businesses in Nevis to source locally or regionally produced nutritious food and value-added products.

This will increase food security and offer a different dining experience for tourists.

In its simplest form trade is the exchange of one thing for another within boarders or across borders and is vital to the success of civilization.

Trade involves but is not limited to goods, clothing, electronics, building materials and cars.

A country’s exports are goods and services that it produces and sold to other countries.

A country’s imports are goods and services that is brought from other countries.

All countries export and import goods and services, and all countries benefit from it.
By exporting, a country gains income.

By importing, it can obtain products that it does not have within its borders.

Exports and imports are important for the development and growth of national economies because not all countries have the resources and skills required to produce certain goods and services.

Nevertheless, countries impose trade barriers, such as tariffs and import quotas, in order to protect their domestic industries.
An import in the receiving country is an export from the sending country.

Importation and exportation are the defining financial transactions of international trade.

In international trade, the importation and exportation of goods are limited by import quotas and mandates from the customs department.

A crime is often called an 'offence'.

Thus a crime is any act or omission that violates a law which results in a punishment.

Punishments can range from the payment of a fine to incarceration in jail.

The level of the offense or crime will usually be set in proportion to the severity of the crime.

Robbing someone at gun point is a severe crime that can result in a lengthy prison sentence while driving while using a cell phone is a less severe crime that may result in the issuing of a ticket or a fee.
Crime prevention is the attempt to reduce and deter crime and criminals.

It is applied specifically to efforts made by governments and police to reduce crime, enforce the law, and maintain criminal justice.

The impact of crime on the people affected by it can be profound.

Victims may suffer from physical, mental, emotional and financial harm, from which some may never recover.
