STATEMENT BY HON. CLEMENT ROHEE, CARICOM MINISTERIAL SPOKESPERSON ON SUGAR, TO THE THIRD MEETING OF CARICOM STAKEHOLDERS ON SUGAR, 6 FEBRUARY 2006, PORT OF SPAIN, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

Colleagues,

Like all previous meetings of CARICOM Stakeholders on Sugar, our Third Meeting comes at another critical juncture in the ongoing Sugar Reform process, that is, on the eve of an important meeting of the EU Agricultural Council scheduled to be held on 20-21 February 2006.

That meeting is likely to deliberate on the level of financial support that will be extended to ACP sugar supplying States for their Action Plans on Accompanying Measures.

STATEMENT BY MOST HON. P.J. PATTERSON, PRIME MINISTER, JAMAICA, ON THE OCCASION OF THE FORMAL LAUNCH OF THE CARICOM SINGLE MARKET, 20 JANUARY 2006, KINGSTON, JAMAICA

When you my colleagues conferred on Jamaica the singular privilege of hosting this ceremony, I had no hesitation in selecting as our venue the Mona Campus. There could be no more fitting location for this historic occasion, since this is indeed Caribbean soil. For nearly six decades now, the University of the West Indies has served as the fountainhead for regional learning, research and intellectual analysis. It has become the cradle which imbued in so many of us an unflinching commitment to regionalism.

ADDRESS BY THE RIGHT HON OWEN ARTHUR, PRIME MINISTER OF BARBADOS, ON THE OCCASION OF THE SIGNING OF THE DECLARATION LAUNCHING THE CARICOM SINGLE MARKET, 30 JANUARY 2006, KINGSTON, JAMAICA

It is common knowledge that I am perfectly happy to come to Jamaica merely to engage in light pursuits. You will therefore appreciate how special it feels to be here to be part of an occasion which holds the promise of making such a significant difference to the future of our Region and the lives of its people.

I have today, on behalf of the Government and people of Barbados signed the declaration marking the coming in to being of the CARICOM Single Market, very conscious of the extraordinary legacy of which I am proud to be a part.
