Brian Lara, a former West Indies cricket great, has been appointed Special Envoy for Trinidad & Tobago.
A release from the Office of the Prime Minister in Trinidad & Tobago on Friday night stated that Mr. Lara will travel to Dominica on Monday to meet with that country's prime minister, Roosevelt Skerrit.
He is scheduled to hold discussions with Mr. Skerrit, to determine how Trinidad & Tobago can further assist Dominica in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Erika.
Trinidad & Tobago's new prime minister, Dr. Keith Rowley, on Friday completed the swearing in of a 23-member Cabinet, smaller than the 33-member Cabinet of the predecessor Kamla Persad-Bissessar administration.
Dr. Rowley had criticised the size of the previous Cabinet as being too large and costly for the twin-island republic.
There are eight women in the new Cabinet.
