Background [2] The Privy Council granted leave to both appellants to appeal against sentence and remitted the matter to the Eastern Caribbean Court of Appeal to consider and determine whether (a) the mandatory sentence of death imposed should be quashed (and if so what sentence (including the sentence of death) should be imposed), or (b) the mandatory sentence of death imposed ought to be affirmed.

The first was published for the period 1st August 1999 to 31st July 2000. As part of ensuring that the Court provides an account for the work, which it performs, a report will be published annually in time for the opening of the new law year. The Years 2000-2003 saw several significant developments in the Court as we continued with our reforms. In addition to the several administrative and procedural reforms taking place, the Court introduced a very successful pilot project in Court Connected Mediation. Mediation is fully in place in the member state of Saint Lucia and plans are in progress to replicate the activity in the other member states of the Court. The persons entrusted to manage the Court system take this job very seriously and we are determined to see the reforms bring about the desired results of dealing with cases in a just and timely manner.
