  • Saint Lucia to the United Nations
    PERMANENT MISSION OF SAINT LUCIA TO THE UNITED NATIONS STATEMENT BY THE HONOURABLE ALLEN M. CHASTANET PRIME MINISTER OF SAINT LUCIA AND MINISTER FOR FINANCE, ECONOMIC GROWTH, JOB CREATION EXTERNAL AFFAIRS AND THE PUBLIC SERVICE TO THE MEETING OF THE HEADS OF STATE AND GOVERNMENT ON FINANCING THE 2030 AGENDA IN THE ERA OF COVID-19 AND BEYOND NEW YORK TUESDAY 29th SEPTEMBER, 2020 1 I wish to commend my colleague Prime Ministers of Canada and Jamaica and the United Nations Secretary General for bringing together Heads of State and Government, International organisations, and other key stakeholders to discuss and consider concrete financing solutions to the COVID19 crisis. While I applaud the work done over the summer months to deliver the menu of options before us, which offers a wide and varied selection that would allow member states to choose options that best suit their national circumstances. It is my considered view that the menu does not effectively address the systemic inequities that have long plagued and prevented small Island developing states like Saint Lucia from achieving meaningful sustainable development. When we gathered in the Spring I called for a holistic approach that would address SIDS challenges with SIDS solutions, focused on our systematic constraints. I highlighted that it is an imperative that a dynamic approach be taken to treat with the recognised vulnerabilities of SIDS as an issue that cuts across the international financing architecture. This approach must deviate from the income only measure of need and the utilisation of a multidimensional vulnerability index. This holistic approach, a compact for the SIDS, would aid in designing innovative response mechanisms and enhance existing financial instruments to guide SIDS economies through this period of crisis and create a responsive system where gains can be maintained, resilience to climate change can be reinforced, and development achieved.

  • Belize 2020 Human Rights Report
    BELIZE 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Belize is a constitutional parliamentary democracy. In the most recent national election, held on November 11, the People’s United Party won 26 of 31 seats in the National Assembly. Party leader John Briceno was sworn in as prime minister on November 12. The Ministry of National Security is responsible for oversight of police, prisons, the coast guard, and the military. The Belize Police Department is primarily responsible for internal security. The small military force primarily focuses on external security but also provides limited domestic security support to civilian authorities and has limited powers of arrest that are executed by the Belize Defence Force for land and shoreline areas and by the Coast Guard for coastal and maritime areas. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Members of security forces committed few abuses. Significant human rights issues included: allegations of the use of excessive force and inhuman treatment by security officers, allegations of widespread corruption and impunity by government officials, trafficking in persons, and child labor. In some cases the government took steps to prosecute public officials who committed abuses, both administratively and through the courts, but there were few successful prosecutions. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and Other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings There was a report that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. A team from the branch of the security force responsible for a killing or other abuse investigates the allegation and then presents the findings, recommendations, and penalties to authorities.
