dc.description.tableofcontents | 2. Hugh Crosskill reports on the second day of the Caricom Heads of Government summit in St. Kitts at which the Caribbean Association of Industry and Commerce proposes a series of measures to place the region on a firmer footing to face the many challenges ahead. The measures include the establishment of a Caribbean Council for Europe; the implementation of mechanisms to enforce the decisions taken by the Heads of Government; and the need for the governments to sign the agreement with the US to usher in the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative. ANR Robinson, Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago, and John Stanley Goddard of the CIAC address the incompatibility between the Common External Tariff and the Enterprise for the Americas Initiative. Leroy Trotman, Caribbean Congress of Labour, reiterates the need for the labour movement to be included in the regional debates and remarks on the Dominican Republic’s use of child labour on state-owned sugar plantations. ANR Robinson also comments on the revoking of the proposal for an independent Caricom team to monitor the elections in Guyana. Michael Manley, Prime Minister of Jamaica, addresses the issue of South Africa’s possible return to international cricket and the question of Venezuela becoming a full member of Caricom. Ramon Sanchez-Parodi, Cuba’s Deputy Foreogn Minister, expands on the purpose of Cuba’s presence at the summit (00:39-08:42) | en_US |
