The Cayman Islands National Party, shortened to the National Party,[1] is a political party in the Cayman Islands.
The Cayman Islands National Party was established in January 2025, three months prior to the 2025 Caymanian general election.[2] The CINP was led by Dan Scott, a former chair of the Education Council and a former manager at Ernst & Young.[3] Scott stated his decision to name the CINP as such as to demonstrate the party's commitment to representing the best interests of the people and of the islands.[2]
During the 2025 election, Scott was unsuccessful in his bid for the riding of Cayman Brac East but vowed to stay on as leader of the party.[4] The parliamentary leader became Gary ‘Peanut’ Rutty, who won George Town South. Rutty became deputy premier in a government consisting of the CINP alongside the Caymanian Community Party and three independents.[4]
