The Constitutional Review Committee was established by Motion of the Honourable House of Assembly on August 25, 2015, after the tabling of the Report of the Saint Lucia Constitutional Reform Commission, executed by the late Justice Suzie D’auvergne and her team in 2011.  The House thereby resolved to appoint a committee tasked with identifying and reaching consensus on amendments to the Constitution of Saint Lucia.

This gathering marked the beginning of a collaborative effort to strengthen and modernize the constitutional framework of Saint Lucia, reflecting the evolving dynamics of governance and society.
