THIS week, regional stakeholders completed a two-day Caribbean Cannabis Symposium in Saint Lucia, where relevant factors were discussed on the way forward for a fully regulated and sustainable cannabis industry.
State Minister in the Ministry of Industry, Investment and Commerce, Dr Norman Dunn, says a national framework for the development of a sustainable standards-led market-driven economy is vital, supported by a culture of high value, to achieve global competitiveness and consumer protection.
“This vision will be realised through the achievement of National Quality Policy goals,” he said, at a virtual awards ceremony, where the St. Lucia Bureau of Standards (SLBS) was accredited for its technical competence and conformity to the quality management system requirements of the ISO/IEC 1700254:2017 standards for testing and calibrating laboratories.
The event was hosted by the Jamaica National Agency for Accreditation (JANAAC), on Thursday (January 14).
