FOUR CARICOM COUNTRIES TO FORGE AHEAD WITH FULL FREE MOVEMENT

Four Caricom countries, two of which are in the OECS, have agreed to the full free movement of Caricom nationals as of October this year.

This was one of the key announcements as leaders of the regional bloc ended their 49th Regular Meeting in Jamaica’s second city, Montego Bay, on Tuesday.

Caricom chairman and Jamaica’s Prime Minister, Dr Andrew Holness, says regional leaders have also declared a full-fledged war on crime.
