BAHAMAS Consul General to New York, Forrester J Carroll, led a delegation of Consuls General who are members of the CARICOM Consular Corps on a courtesy and fact-finding call to the offices of Erik Adams, newly elected President of the Brooklyn Borough.

The visit on Tuesday aimed to discuss ways and means of finding common ground in solving the many issues affecting the Caribbean diaspora within the jurisdiction.

President Adams promised the full co-operation of himself, his office and staff in forging a better relationship with the CARICOM Consular Corps and the Caribbean diaspora.

Carroll, chairman of the CARICOM Consular Corps, said the meeting was timely, but overdue. While thanking the President and his staff on behalf of the CARICOM Consular Corps, Consul General Carroll pledged the full support of the Corps and its member consulates, both individually and collectively.

Borough President Adams has spent the last 30 years serving the city he grew up in and in improving and protecting the lives of New Yorkers as a police officer, legislator and builder of successful coalitions.
