In other news…The British Government has given over a million dollars towards the I.C.J. public awareness and preparedness campaign.  On Wednesday, British High Commissioner Peter Hughes handed over five hundred thousand pounds which will be used to support the referendum on whether or not to refer Guatemala’s claim to the International Court of Justice.  The project was launched last month when the U.S. Embassy in Belize gave two hundred and fifty-thousand U.S. dollars. The campaign is set to continue through to April of next year when the referendum takes place.  The funds will be administered by the United Nations Development Programme.
