Belize: Economic Partnership Agreements

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent representations he has received on the participation of Belize in EU economic partnership agreements; and if he will make a statement.

Belize is party to the Economic Partnership Agreement signed in October 2008 between the EU and 15 Caribbean states.

We have not received representations about Belize's participation.
