Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller has congratulated Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit of Dominica for his country’s enactment of legislation to adopt the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) as the final Court of Appeal.
The amendment was approved by Dominica’s House of Assembly on Tuesday.
Speaking with Skerrit on Wednesday before the start of the business session of the 35th meeting of the Conference of CARICOM Heads of Government in Antigua and Barbuda, Simpson Miller conveyed commendation.
She added, that the constitutional amendment was a vote of confidence in the CARICOM regional institution, and the high quality of the jurisprudence in the region.
The Prime Minister noted, that Dominica had set an example for other Member States, including Jamaica, which have not yet adopted the CCJ as their final Court of Appeal.
