dc.description.abstract | In London, the conference to discuss the future directions of Britain's relations with its dependent territories concluded. The issue of British passports and full citizen's right for dependent territories, is a contentious one. Foreign Secretary Robin Cook stated that territories which choose to remain dependent should set high standards in financial regulation and bring their laws in line with Britain's. However, Caribbean dependent territories express differences on this view, especially on laws against sodomy. Montserrat's Chief Minister David Brandt criticised the British government for their policy towards Montserrat. Meanwhile, Caribbean banana producers are still waiting to hear how Europe will alter its new banana importation regime in accordance with WTO rules. Britain continues to plead the case of the Caribbean banana producers. The new body to replace the CARICOM Common Market Council is the CARICOM Council for Trade and Economic Development (COTED) which meets in Jamaica to discuss possible changes to the Treaty of Chaguaramas. In cricket, there is a double dose of test cricket for Trinidad and despite apprehension, the Oval's pitch is expected to hold up. | en_US |
