While also tackling the issues of inflation, food security and climate-smart investments, Prime Minister Davis reminded leaders of the imperative to take action.

“The time to act is now, and we must act together.  As we exchange proposals and debate policies, we ought to be mindful of our commitment to improve the quality of life for the people we serve; the people who ought always to remain at the centre of our deliberations.”
