Today is actually our (staff of the Metrication Secretariat) final day at the SLBS, we have completed the handing over process to the SLBS. We were informed that limited funds were allocated in the 2012/13 budget for the continuation metrication. However, the SLBS will endeavour to continue the process. It has been a pleasure communicating with you and the other members. On behalf of the past Chairman of the Metrication Board, please extent my thanks and gratitude to the USMA and UKMA for the advice and technical assistance given to the Saint Lucia Metrication Secretariat particularly with the editing of the National Metric Pocket Guide. Best Regards Judy H. Rene Former Coordinator Saint Lucia Metrication Secretariat
