Saint Lucia's Carnival competition rules may soon change, with a tie-breaker set to be added to the National Carnival Queen Pageant after this year's decision to crown two queens.Speaking at Monday's pre-Cabinet press briefing, Minister for Creative Industries and Culture Dr Ernest Hilaire defended the decision, arguing that under the existing rules there was no provision for a tie-breaker, leaving officials with little choice but to declare joint winners.
