Mr. Chairman, I recognise very specially the Prime Minister of the Bahamas , the Honourable Hubert Ingraham, who was recently re-elected to his Office after a voluntary five-year respite from his Prime Ministerial perch. He had welcomed me to the Bahamas at my first Heads of Government Conference in July 2001. I now reciprocate. Prime Minister Ingraham is a veteran of CARICOM; his wisdom and experience will no doubt assist us in charting the most efficacious way forward.
