8. Monitoring and Review
In recognition of the fact that some of the activities, as outlined above, are long term and
that approaches to Cyber Security and Cybercrime must be continuously developed, the need
for decisive action and the implementation of immediate “quick wins” cannot be
overemphasized. It should also be noted that some activities are already in progress and are
in alignment with this action plan (e.g. Strategy development, Policy development, training,
etc.).
Based on the input of the representatives of the Caribbean countries at CSM II, it is clear that
there is a need for a structured approach in order to ensure that all activities are adequately
coordinated, that there is no duplication of effort and that resources are effectively used.
Based on the aforementioned, there is the need to ensure that the Action Plan is constantly
monitored and reviewed. This will also ensure that the plan is appropriately amended in
response to the changing environment.
The monitoring and review process will include the following elements: ‐
1. Periodic reports from the RCC to the Steering Committee through the Regional
Intelligence Fusion Centre (RIFC), which is responsible for coordinating the
activities of the RCC.
2. Meeting of the Steering Committee – The Steering Committee will meet on a
mutually agreed schedule to review the work being done by the RCC and make
appropriate recommendations for appropriate action by the RIFC. It should be
noted that the Steering Committee will only function in an advisory capacity.
3. CSM Meetings – The Steering Committee will seek to host Caribbean Stakeholders
Meetings (at least annually), in order to update all stakeholders on the work being
