Today I will provide an update on the Commission of Inquiry and its implementation. This is in advance of travel to London with Premier to meet Minister Stephen Doughty, the Minister of Overseas Territories, on 11 September. I will group my remarks around three broad areas.

I am pleased to be joined by Governor Pruce to update you the public on the status of the Implementation of the Recommendations of the Commission of Inquiry and Other Reforms.

The Government of the Virgin Islands continues to work diligently to complete the implementation of the recommendations outlined in the Commission of Inquiry (COI) report, by the 31 August 2024 deadline.
