Mr. Chairman, permit me first to thank the out-going Chairman of CARICOM, the Honourable Patrick Manning, for his excellent leadership of our regional integration movement during his tenure. In his second (or is it his third?) coming, Prime Minister Manning has emerged as a titan of regional integration. I anticipate continued excellence of leadership from our in-coming Chairman, the Honourable Denzil Douglas, to whom I pledge, as always, my fullest support and cooperation.
