Six legislators from North Dakota in the United States have arrived in Antigua for four days of meetings with government officials.
High on the agenda will be discussions on internet gaming and the development of a corresponding banking relationship with the Bank of North Dakota, the only state-owned bank in the United States managed by the legislators.
Minister of Finance and the Economy Dr. Errol Cort has spearheaded the nation's efforts in the World Trade Organisation against the United States over internet gaming.
He says this week's talks are very important because the success of the internet gaming industry is largely dependent on finding corresponding banks who will do business with internet gaming companies.
