Anguilla awaiting response from Britain

The government of Anguilla says it is still awaiting a response from Britain, on a request to borrow funds to help boost the island\'s economy.



Chief Minister Osborne Fleming says without additional assistance the government will be unable to meet its financial obligations.



Mr Fleming is planning to meet with public officers and the private sector to discuss the fiscal situation.



Another British territory, the Cayman Islands, has also asked the UK for permission to borrow funds to help the economy.
