Monday 9th December 2013, the representatives of the new management of the University of St. Eustatius School of Medicine formally requested a meeting with Prime Minister the Honorable Mrs. Sarah Wescot Williams and the Minister of Education, Culture, Youth and Sports the Honorable Mrs. Patricia D. Lourens – Philip.
Due to the fact that the main representative of the group indicated that he was scheduled to leave the island on Tuesday morning, an emergency meeting was convened by the Ministers and included members of the Prime minister’s cabinet and the Secretary General of General Affairs.
The main purpose of this meeting was to review their request for a charter for USESOM (University of St. Eustatius School of Medicine) by the Legal Department of General Affairs. It was agreed that the Legal Department would review the situation and give an advice on the matters related to the request within a week’s time.
