The Jamaican Prime Minister added: "This 50th anniversary year will be a time for reflection on the lessons of the past; and as we celebrate our achievements as an independent nation, we now need to complete the circle of independence." She added: "In this regard, we will therefore initiate the process of our detachment from the monarch to become a republic with our own indigenous president as head of state."
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: "The issue of the Jamaican head of state is entirely a matter for the Jamaican government and people."
