British Prime Minister David Cameron has announced a 300-million-British-pound development package for the Caribbean.

According to Cameron the Fund will provide grants for infrastructure projects like roads and bridges.

“I believe this money could help to unleash trade across the region with new roads, new bridges, and new port infrastructure to help speed up freight movements,” he said following bilateral talks with Prime Minister in Jamaica.
