Headlines with anchor Debbie Ransome (00:28) 2. The future of the joint Windward Islands banana shipping arrangements is in jeopardy as a result of an agreement signed between private Saint Lucia Banana Corporation and a company in Martinique. Chairman of Saint Lucia Banana Corporation Patrick Joseph outlines the arrangement and calls on the Windward islands to privatise, and restructure the banana industry. Pete Ninvalle reports from Castries (00:29 - 03: 28) 3. The banana trade dispute was the main item on the agenda in discussions held among Caribbean and Central American Foreign Ministers in Georgetown Guyana. Secretary General of CARICOM Edwin Carrington highlights how the two regions can improve trading relationship. Secretary of the Organization of American States César Gaviria is optimistic about a positive outcome of the banana trade war and reviews the OAS role in the process. Colin Smith reports (03: 29 – 06:18) 4. In part two of a report on the role of Latin America banana producers in the ongoing banana dispute BBC correspondent Neil Rosser reviews the current trade impasse. Orlando Davis speaks on the discriminatory practices of the European Union and the preferential treatment given to the Caribbean banana industry.

In Antigua/Barbuda the government is in the process of planning a major constitutional review exercise which will explore the possibility of the twin islands becoming a Republic and retaining the Privy Council as the final Court of Appeal. Debbie Ransome reports (09: 36 - 10: 22) 6. The regional media workers association has thrown its support behind journalists at the Antiguan Sun Newspaper who are questioning the independence of the daily publication.

The InterAmerican Press Association is meeting to review press freedom across the hemisphere and is closely monitoring the issue of press freedom in Antigua and Cuba.
