“St. Kitts and Nevis being represented on this Advisory Group, which is the main committee mobilizing international action on the Haiti crisis, provides an opportunity to be in the room where critical decisions are being taken and to strengthen the Group's efforts to address the humanitarian needs of the population, restore security and political stability and devise a people-centered development pathway to reconstruction and good governance,” said Ambassador Dockery.
 
“St. Kitts and Nevis will work assiduously to help shape the parameters of international support in ways that put the interest of the people of Haiti first,” she concluded.
