Upon completion of the legal and constitutional process the CCJ will be officially recognized as St Lucia’s jurisdiction final appellate court.

Tuesday’s news conference will also mark the commencement of a public education and visibility drive which will take the form of a Town Hall Meeting series. The sessions will run throughout the month of February initially in Castries, Gros Islet, Vieux Fort and Soufriere.
