WILLEMSTAD – An evaluation of the so-called landspakketten reforms in Curaçao and Sint Maarten is expected to be completed by March 1, 2026, according to the Dutch cabinet.
The landspakketten form part of Article 4 of Kingdom Relations and are closely linked to the financial supervision objectives under Article 5. The upcoming evaluation will assess whether the financial resources provided were sufficient and effectively used to achieve reform goals.
A special evaluation committee has already been appointed, and the final report will be presented to the prime ministers of Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten, as well as the Dutch Minister of the Interior and Kingdom Relations.
The cabinet clarified that liquidity loans will not be re-evaluated, as these represent a small fraction of the more than €1 billion in total financial support already reviewed in earlier evaluations.
