The Prime Minister

The whole House will, I feel sure, wish to send warm congratulations to St. Chistopher-Nevis-Anguilla, Antigua, Dominica, St. Lucia and Grenada on their achievement of associated status, with its best wishes for their future happiness and prosperity.

Her Majesty's Government for their part will present silver table centre pieces to commemorate the occasion.
