The Ministry of Finance, in collaboration with the Commonwealth Secretariat, will be hosting a workshop entitled "Developing a Public Debt Statistical Bulletin" next week.

Designed for debt managers in the Caribbean, it will take place at the Accra Beach Resort, Rockley, Christ Church, from June 21 to June 30.

Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, William Layne will deliver the feature address on Monday, June 21, to open the workshop at 9:00 a.m.

The workshop aims to provide participants with the requisite skills for developing a comprehensive National Debt Bulletin. It is also meant to equip them with the knowledge to collate, analyse and present statistics on all aspects of public debt.

Sessions will cover new statistical methodology, standards and definitions as prescribed by the International Monetary Fund, through the task force for financial statistics. clashley@barbados.gov.bb
