1

The prime minister of Saint Kitts and Nevis is the head of government of the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis. The current Prime Minister is Terrance Drew since 6 August 2022.

Constitutional basis

The office of prime minister is established by section 52 of the constitution of Saint Kitts and Nevis, which provides that the governor-general must appoint the Representative in the National Assembly who "appears to him or her likely to command the support of the majority of the Representatives". If a no-confidence motion in the prime minister is passed by the National Assembly, the prime minister must either resign with three days or advise the governor-general to dissolve the assembly and call a general election. If this does not occur, the governor-general must remove the prime minister from office. The office of prime minister also becomes vacant if the officeholder ceases to become a member of the National Assembly (other than by dissolution of parliament).
