Message of Condolence from the OECS Commission

The OECS Commission extends sincere condolences to the Government and people of Nevis on the passing of Mr. Carl Williams, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism, Culture & Information.

OECS Tourism Specialist, Dr. Lorraine Nicholas, worked very closely with Mr. Williams and was deeply saddened by the news.

“St. Kitts and Nevis, and by extension the OECS region, has lost an exceptional professional who has contributed outstandingly to the tourism and hospitality sector. Carl’s affable personality and diligence will certainly be missed,” Dr. Nicholas said.

Our prayers are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

About The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States

Back to www.oecs.int

The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) is an International Organisation dedicated to economic harmonisation and integration, protection of human and legal rights, and the encouragement of good governance among independent and non-independent countries in the Eastern Caribbean. The OECS came into being on June 18th 1981, when seven Eastern Caribbean countries signed a treaty agreeing to cooperate with each other while promoting unity and solidarity among its Members. The Treaty became known as the Treaty of Basseterre, so named in honour of the capital city of St. Kitts and Nevis where it was signed. The OECS today, currently has eleven members, spread across the Eastern Caribbean comprising Antigua and Barbuda, Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, St Vincent and The Grenadines, British Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Martinique and Guadeloupe.
