​ It is my pleasure, as Secretary-General of the Caribbean Community, to be in Antigua and Barbuda and to join in greeting you all on behalf of the Caribbean Community Secretariat and indeed of the entire Community.

This meeting comes at a very hectic period for me and the Secretariat, as we are in the process of preparing for the 31st Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government, which takes place in Montego Bay, Jamaica in just over a week’s time from 4th to 7th July.

It is, for me, a signal and special honour - indeed privilege - to have been invited by the Government of Jamaica to bear witness to today’s auspicious occasion, the swearing-in of Mr. Justice Charles Winston Anderson, as Judge of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ). The occasion is particularly auspicious, as today marks the first time that a Jamaican national is being elevated to the high judicial office of Judge of the Caribbean Court of Justice, a development for which I have long yearned.

​ It is my pleasure to open the batting this afternoon, (the West Indies can do with a change!) at this Media Clinic and hope that I score more runs that the West Indies openers did in the Test Match that ended on Sunday! Seriously though this clinic has become an annual feature of the preparations for the July Meeting of Heads of Government and seeks to give the media in particular in-depth information on some of the issues which the Heads of Government will be discussing at the meeting.
