Ending clause on contract?
GAZETTED a RFP for a proposed New General Post Office – me hopes AG office has advised if there are early ending clauses for Town Centre Mall (Brent Symonette) because we don’t want to be paying millions of penalty money for breaching the lease early?
Arabian nights
The Davis administration has taken a bold and innovative approach to international geopolitical relations and tapping into non- traditional sources of funding and investment possibilities.
Governor General
Reading the Constitution as to the Office of Governor General, Article 32, it is interesting it provides for the appointment, but seemingly does not stipulate once appointed how long is the tenure of being Governor General.

I am writing an open letter to the Minister of Agriculture and Marine Resources, Clay Sweeting. I read an article in the paper about how the pandemic has affected Barbados.
