EU funds boost Caricom trade stats

Staff at the Caribbean Community (Caricom) Secretariat were introduced to new systems for Merchandise Trade Statistics as efforts continue to provide core, high quality statistics to regional decision-makers.

A consultancy in that regard started this week with a briefing session at the Caricom Secretariat, a press statement from the agency said. The consultancy is being funded by the European Union under the 10th European Development Fund (EDF) Caricom Single Market and Economy and Economic Integration Programme.
