St Lucia\'s tourism minister Allen Chastanet is predicting what he describes as a bleak summer for the hospitality sector.



According to Mr Chastanet bookings are down by a third.



He says more job losses are likely in the coming months.



Earlier this week, the opposition urged the government to meet urgently with hoteliers to formulate a plan to save jobs.
