The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Commission takes further steps to strengthen the Eastern Caribbean Liaison Service (ECLS) Programme following meetings held during a Canada mission. According to coverage from Dominica News Online and The Voice (Saint Lucia), the mission involves high-level discussions focused on moving the programme toward a new governance framework. Both outlets describe the OECS Commission as progressing the transition through formal engagement with relevant stakeholders during the trip, with the aim of improving how the programme is administered going forward. The reporting indicates that the work is part of a broader effort to prepare the ECLS for the governance changes rather than initiating immediate operational shifts. While details on the specific governance model are not provided in the excerpts, the two sources agree on the direction of travel: the OECS is advancing the ECLS transition following Canada-based meetings and is positioning the programme for its next governance arrangements.
