Government Notebook A fresh news package daily Every Friday at 6.15 p.m. on NTN, Cablevision Channel 2. on all local radio stations 2 Saint Lucia Saturday, December 23, 2006 the Constitution, I have been invited by Her Excellency, the Governor Gen- eral to form a Government and by this simple ceremony I have been sworn in as Prime Minister. In the coming days I will appoint persons to hold the office of Minister in the various Ministries and departments of Government and will make appointments to the many Boards of statutory corporations that form part of the machinery of gover- nance of our country. In order to do this I expect the co- operation of members of these Boards and ask them to put their positions at the disposal of the Prime Minister. As we move to address the develop- ment agenda that is before us, we have an obligation to put behind us the years of political tribalism that have been so glaringly demonstrated in the events of recent weeks. We must renew our coun- try, based on the recognition that the national interest takes precedence over Governor General Dame Pearlette Louisy welcomes PM to Government House individual or party political positions. I pledge that this Government will be the Government of all the people of St. Lucia. We must now harness our scarce human and material resources behind the common national cause and en- gage the energies of all Saint Lucians in the process of national development, Prime Minister Sir John Compton allowing each person to make the con- delivering address tribution of which he or she is capable.

' .. .. ~ If,!, Acknowledgements This regional model condom policy would not be possible without the contributions and the participation of many stakeholders throughout the Caribbean region and abroad. Under the guidance from the PANCAP Coordinating Unit the policy was drafted by Luise Lehmann, a senior reproductive health consultant, who received valuable input, remarkable feedback and congenial welcome from partners in various sectors involved in the fight against HIV and AIDS. We express our gratitude to all stakeholders who took the time to respond to the questions posed by the consultant. Their generosity has allowed to collect and analyse present, past and future challenges with regard to HIV prevention and to condom use in particular. We also thank all those who have helped organising the consultant’s field mission despite logistical constraints. Furthermore, we convey our thanks to all participants in the stakeholder meeting in November 2007 who contributed to develop the core issues of the policy. Many thanks go to all those who subsequently reviewed and commented two more draft versions, in particular to the members of the PANCAP Regional Coordinating Mechanism (RCM) in April 2008.

A retrospective cross-sectional population survey on AGE-related illness was administered to a random sample of residents of Saint Lucia in 20 April–16 May 2008 and 6-13 December 2009 to capture the high- and low-AGE season respectively. Of the selected 1,150 individuals, 1,006 were administered the survey through face-to-face interviews (re- sponse rate 87.4%). The overall monthly prevalence of AGE was 3.9%. The yearly incidence rate was 0.52 episodes/person-year. The age-adjusted monthly prevalence was 4.6%. The highest monthly prevalence of AGE was among children aged <5 years (7.5%) and the lowest in persons aged 45-64 years (2.6%). The aver- age number of days an individual suffered from diarrhoea was 3.8 days [range 1-21 day(s)]. Of the reported AGE cases, only seven (18%) sought medical care; however, 83% stayed at home due to the illness [(range 1-16 day(s), mean 2.5]; and 26% required other individuals to take care of them.
