It can solve some of the biggest, most urgent problems of our time: in healthcare, in service delivery, in climate change, and so on.

I thought to reflect on the findings of the ‘National Development Plan’ to date, and set out some of the priorities of our administration in completing and implementing them.
But this would have been enlightenment without provocation.
The provocation, or rather, the things upon which we might not all agree, will hopefully prove more fertile for discussion and debate.

Crime, in all of its manifestations, is a global and complex issue that profits criminals billions of dollars each year while leaving many reeling to recover.
We all feel deeply the damaging effects of crime.
We all hear the cries of persons who have suffered at the hands of criminals.
We all know how it plagues our communities.
And I know we all want desperately to change this narrative.

However, the ongoing effort to eradicate this scourge will require a multi-faceted response that address the economic, social, and legal realities that contribute to this situation, particularly in the Caribbean.
