CARICOM summit gets underway

Prime Minister Portia Simpson-Miller and other CARICOM leaders will begin their annual summit in Antigua today discussing the first ever Strategic Plan for the 15-member regional grouping.   

The five year plan, 2015 to 2019, will dominate the four day event.  CARICOM officials hope it will reposition the region to deal with a changing global environment. 

The plan was developed following widespread public consultation across the region. The leaders will seek to reach agreement on priority areas for attention over the period of  the plan.
