BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - While apparently unwilling, if not unable, to make a reality of the long promised plan for fundamental restructuring of the governance architecture in the Caribbean Community, there seems to be a language shift in emphasis from “executive authority” to talk of a “change process”.
Consequently, as the Community secretariat advances arrangements for the forthcoming 34th annual CARICOM Heads of Government Conference in Port of Spain in July, there are sketches of a proposed ‘Community Strategic Plan (2014-2019) with references to the intended “change process”.
Towards this end, Heads of Government agreed at their 24th Inter-Sessional Meeting in Haiti this past February to now have within their respective bureaucratic structures a collection of “change drivers”.
