  1. Anguilla has not been overlooked. The report says:

    "We recommend that the Government should encourage the Anguillan government to establish an independent inquiry into allegations that Anguillan ministers accepted bribes from developers in the Territory. We also recommend that the Government should urge the Anguillan government to use the opportunity of constitutional review to introduce stronger anti-corruption measures in the Territory. (para 203)"

  2. Under our present laws, bribes given to elected officials are illegal if we call them "bribes" but legal if we call them "campaign contributions."
