Guyana’s Foreign Minister Mr. Carl Greenidge and CARICOM Secretary-General Ambassador Irwin LaRocque met Guyana media representatives on Saturday, ahead of the upcoming 37th CARICOM Heads of Government meeting to be held in Georgetown 4 – 6 July 2016.
The Forum, organised by Guyana’s Government Information Agency (GINA) provided an update on arrangements for the meeting and allowed media practitioners an opportunity to seek clarity on issues impacting the Caribbean Community. Ambassador LaRocque told the gathering that security issues, the threat to correspondent banking, the regional single market and the still unresolved matter of stateless Haitians of Dominican descent are among items on a packed agenda to go before the Heads.
The Meeting, under the Chairmanship of Dominica’s Prime Minister Mr. Roosevelt Skerrit, begins with an Opening Ceremony at the Guyana Cultural Centre on Monday 4 July from 5:00 pm. The plenary sessions on Tuesday 5 to Wednesday 6 July take place at the Pegasus hotel, Georgetown.
