After a special caucus on the crime that has been plaguing the region, Caricom Heads at their February 18-19 intersessional conference in Haiti adopted a Regional Crime and Security Strategy and again pressed the United States to help stem the flow of illicit arms to the region.
The Heads convened a special Caucus to focus on both law enforcement and prevention issues given the importance of crime and security to the Region and its effects on national and regional development.
