Hillsborough, July 6th- Young people in Carriacou & Petite Martinique showcased their debating skills as the Youth Department within the Ministry of Carriacou & Petite Martinique Affairs staged a successful sitting of the third Youth Parliament on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 at the Carriacou Health Services. They debated the topic: “Be it resolved that persons under the age of eighteen should be subjected to night time curfew as a means of reducing crime”. The government side led by youth Prime Minister Keshroy DeRoche, argued that the implementation of a night time curfew will help to curb violence and instill good moral values among young people while Opposition leader, Andal Bartholomew argued that it could have negative results. Minister for Carriacou & Petite Martinique Affairs Senator the Hon. George Prime congratulated the youth parliamentarians for participating in the activity as, he said, it exposes them to the real world of parliament. Among the persons in attendance were Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Carriacou & Petite Martinique Affairs Bernadette Lendore-Sylvester and Parliamentary Representative Hon. Elvin Nimrod.
