ECLAC Report on gov.ky

The Cabinet Office has had ECLAC's report The Impact of Hurricane Ivan in the Cayman Islands placed on Government's website.

ECLAC, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean, completed the report at the request of Government and with the support of the United Nations Development Programme. The document is posted in six sections describing damage to productive and social sectors and to infrastructure, and discussing environmental impacts, macroeconomic effects, and the reconstruction process.

An additional brief ECLAC report is also posted. Since the Commission did comprehensive assessments in five countries (Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Dominican Republic, Grenada and Jamaica), Hurricane Season 2004 in the Caribbean summarizes and contrasts statistics for those countries.
