BELIZE: The Government of Belize, through the Ministry of the Public Service, Energy and Public Utilities and in collaboration with the Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME) Unit of the Ministry of Economic Development, Petroleum, Investment, Trade and Commerce, is conducting a series of discussions on a Charter for Caribbean Public Services.
A Charter identifies components of a professional and effective public service. It establishes a general framework of guiding principles, policies and management mechanisms reflecting a common commitment of the Public Services of the Caribbean Region. It is intended to serve as a catalyst for the reform, modernization and transformation of national public sector entities within the context of each country’s realities and priorities.
These discussions are in keeping with a regional effort to strengthen public administration across the CARICOM Region, while building bridges of solidarity and cooperation. Providing quality services, which are centered on citizens and clients, is a priority for the Government of Belize. The Ministry of the Public Service, Energy and Public Utilities wishes to inform and assure Belizeans of its commitment to maintaining an efficient and effective Public Service and to undertake necessary interventions that will allow for better services to all customers.
