WILLEMSTAD - The Ministry of Economic Development has announced that they will start research on the diving sector on the island. Previously it appeared that of the nearly 100 diving schools on the island, only 25 are known to have gone through the audits and comply with the regulations set by the ministry which oversees the tourism sector.

Now there is no legislation for the diving sector which makes it impossible to require diving schools to comply with certain rules and regulations.

The Minister of Economic Development Giselle Mc William announced that her minister is now going to map the diving sector in collaboration with the Curaçao Tourist Board (CTB).
