STATEMENT BY MR. EDWIN W. CARRINGTON, SECRETARY-GENERAL, CARIFORUM, ON THE SIGNING OF FINANCING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE EUROPEAN UNION AND CARIFORUM FOR AIR ACCESS IMPROVEMENT FOR DOMINICA, 9 JANUARY 2004, GEORGETOWN, GUYANA

It is with mixed feelings that I take part in this very important ceremony today. Mixed feelings because as you all know earlier this week there was the unfortunate passing of the Honourable Pierre Charles, the late Prime Minister of Dominica, on Tuesday, 6 January. Mixed feelings because today, I have the privilege and honour to sign, on behalf of CARIFORUM, a Financing Agreement, which provides for financial support valued at 11.95 Million Euro for Air Access Improvement for Dominica.
