PM Anthony challenges CARICOM senior public officers

CASTRIES, St. Lucia CMC - Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony has challenged Cabinet secretaries and heads of the Public Services in the Commonwealth Caribbean to set examples in their professional lives so others in the service may be inspired and motivated.
Speaking at the opening ceremony of the "Commonwealth Caribbean Cabinet Secretaries and Heads of Public Service Consultative Meeting" in Vieux-Fort, south of here, Anthony said that this was “a testing time for leadership” in regional public services.
Governments, he said, have been “forced to implement austerity measures,” which have severe implications for the Public Service as governments seek to cut or contain expenditure in reducing their fiscal deficits.”
