St. Lucia’s Prime Minister congratulates CCJ on Ten

Jan 25, 2015

St. Lucia’s Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony congratulates the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) on its tenth anniversary and speaks of his country’s plans for accessing the Court’s appellate jurisdiction.
The CCJ was inaugurated on 16 April, 2005 in Trinidad and Tobago where it is headquartered. Its central role is providing legal certainty to the operations of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME). It is structured to have two jurisdictions – an original and an appellate.
In its original jurisdiction it ensures uniform interpretation and application of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas, thereby underpinning and advancing the CARICOM Single Market and Economy. As the final court of appeal for Member States of the Caribbean Community it fosters the development of an indigenous Caribbean jurisprudence”.
