Turks and Caicos Islands
Information about Turks and Caicos Islands
The islands were part of the UK's Jamaican colony until 1962, when they assumed the status of a separate crown colony upon Jamaica's independence.
The governor of The Bahamas oversaw affairs from 1965 to 1973.
With Bahamian independence, the islands received a separate governor in 1973.
Although independence was agreed upon for 1982, the policy was reversed and the islands remain a British overseas territory.
