During this session, which brought together 15 members of CARICOM countries, Haiti was represented by Chenet St-Vil, the Coordinator of the Office of Coordination and monitoring of agreements of the CARICOM, of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) and Franck Marc Larose, Director of Foreign Trade, at the Ministry of Commerce, have affirmed their commitment to implement from October 2014 the Common External Tariff (CET), a provision of CARICOM, which cancels tariffs between members of the Caribbean Common Market. According to Mr. St-Vil "the presence of Haiti to the 38th Session of COTED is an opportunity at the regional level but also internationally." Mr. St-Vil took the opportunity to explain to the representatives of different countries of the CARICOM the vision of the Haitian private sector by praising the merits of public / private partnership in Haiti. For his part Franck Larose, has been very optimistic "With the implementation of the Common External Tariff, Haiti will not only have a domestic market but a regional market estimated at 18 million inhabitants with a flow of more than 23 million tourists to sell its products."
