GRENADA: Gov't says no to homosexuality
Tuesday, 28 November 2006
ST. GEORGE'S, Grenada (CMC):
Health Minister Ann David-Antoine says the Grenada Government will not consider a recommendation to decriminalise homosexuality and prostitution on the island.
A recent study commissioned by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) recommended the decriminalisation of homosexuality and prostitution.
However, David-Antoine said this is not among the government's immediate agenda noting religious and cultural considerations.
"Not at this time, we're not," the minister remarked. "Every sovereign country has to take on board its own cultural situation, the faith and religious situation within the country."
David-Antoine also mooted a recent suggestion for the government to legislate commercial sex workers for the 2007 Cricket World Cup.
"At this point that is not on our books neither is the situation regarding drawing up a register of commercial sex workers for World Cup. That is definitely not on our agenda in Grenada, at this time," she said.

Hmmm a sort of Cultural Imperialism by the U.N . Sort do this or don't get any aid approach.
I wonder if it works in Arab countries that don't require Aid or Cultural values to be imposed on them?
