dc.description.abstractIn this report Trinidad and Tobago Finance Minister Wendell Mottley is not very optimistic that the NAFTA Parity bill will receive urgent US attention. In St. Vincent, Jerry Scott, Minister of Communication and Works argues that there is no need for integrity legislation. However, Deputy Opposition Leader Dr. Ralph Gonsalves states he is surprised by Mr. Scott's comments as Prime Minister Mitchell is in favour of integrity legislation. On the issue of freedom of the press, Mr. Scott also comments that there is no need for reform while the Opposition Leader Vincent Beache states that absolute freedom is not an entirely true description of St. Vincent's electronic media. In Antigua, the economy is feeling the strain from the passage of hurricane Luis. The government announced a shortfall in revenue amidst fears that some civil servants may be laid off. The Dominican Republic holds its primaries to elect a successor to President Joaquin Balaguer. The two main ruling party candidates are Jacinto Peynado and Carlos Morales Troncoso. In the US, a recent opinion poll has found former Joint Chiefs of Staff, Colin Powell would comfortably beat President Clinton in a two-way contest. In Caribbean cricket a number of calls have been made on the West Indies Cricket Board to make clear the reasons behind the omissions of Carl Hooper and Kenneth Benjamin from the squad. Hugh Crosskill examines the background to the story and suggests the way things might turn out.en_US
