dc.description.abstract | Antigua's Chief Minister, Emile Gumbs was confident about his party's chances in the forthcoming elections. In an interview, Gumbs speaks on his party, the Anguillan National Alliance dominant features in contesting the elections which includes political stability, adequate funding from Britain, reduction in unemployment and increase in domestic savings. At the recently concluded ACP/EEC meeting in Brazzaville, ACP Secretary General Edwin Carrington gave his assessment of the negotiations. Carrington notes that the meeting was not easy to assess as it traversed the entire field of the trade blocs, recognizing issues that separate as well as those that bring them together and the process of compromise. Also in trade, Neil Shaw, Chairman of Tate and Lyle outlines the company's plan to expand into the European beet industry. Shaw assured Caribbean producers that their quotas of cane sugar would likely be increased rather than decreased. The report concludes with Prince Charles' visit to St. Lucia which was seen as symbolic rather than of economic importance. | en_US |
