With no collective agreement yet reached by CARICOM on the free movement of nationals, respective member states are rolling out their own policy initiatives.

“I want to call it the coalition of the willing. There are still one and two countries that have some technical issues they have to iron out, but for those of us who don’t have those issues, we have committed to the free movement,” CARICOM Chairman and Prime Minister of Grenada Dickon Mitchell told Stabroek News on Friday when asked for an update.

The CARICOM Chairman did “not want to say” which countries are still looking at issues but noted that his country has rolled out free movement. “In Grenada we sought to address this,” he stated.
