Nassau, Bahamas - Algernon
Cargill, Director of NIB told members of the Rotary Club of Nassau this
week that that Phase I of the National Prescription Drug Plan has been
going very well and he believes NIB will be able to launch Phase II
of the Plan earlier than expected next year because of the success of
Phase I.

"In
terms of the first six weeks of the plan we've registered more than
13,000 people so we have 40% of our target members already registered.
We have 36 private pharmacies now. Quite a few pharmacies who were originally
hesitant are now signing on because the good news about the plan is
spreading.
