Posted as a comment to the A Legal Challenge to the HYATT HOTEL is Looming by DAVID COMISSIONG

My further reading of the relevant statutory instruments has confirmed that the Chief Town Planner is OBLIGATED to refer an application for planning permission that relates to beachfront property on the coast of Barbados to the relevant Minister of Government— the Prime Minister— for his decision. Thus, even though Maloney”s / Visions Develop Inc’s application may have been addressed to the Chief Town Planner, it is Prime Minister Stuart who has to consider it and make the decision.

The Town and Country Planning Act also stipulates that in so doing, Stuart HAS to refer to the country’s Physical Development Plan and to any other material or relevant circumstance.

The problem is though that the Physical Development Plan was last amended in 2003, and this “new” 2003 Plan was ratified in or about 2008— even though the Town and Country Planning Act stipulates that the Chief Town Planner HAS to carry out a survey of the Island at least once every 5 years, and HAS to submit a Report and any recommendations or proposals for amendment or additions to the Physical Development Plan to the Minister (the Prime Minister). The current and operative Barbados Physical Development Plan is thus a 2003 Plan !

In 2011, some 8 years after the current Physical Development Plan was established, the City of Bridgetown was designated a UNESCO world heritage site!

How is Stuart going to carry out his statutory duty with an outdated Physical Development Plan that has not factored in the UNESCO designation?

I have drafted a letter about all this to Stuart and will be delivering it to him tomorrow.

    “Cahill was first amjor ‘deal’ the people saw right through and could not stomach. God willing Hyatt will be the last”

    Do not forget Deltro Solar et al. The people will see through that deal too.


  2. DD,
    Is there anything you approve of or would approve? Cahill and Deltro are Canadian, Hyatt is not, is that a scam too? When Indians set up the call centre for computer companies and then shortly after abandoned everything, sent home people and moved, (where?) there was nary a word of protest. That was a bigger scam than any of those mentioned by you.


  3. @ac re your 11:58 a.m. post, Are you justifying what was not captured in the 2013 manifesto to means that the Stuart Administration is not mandated to be truthful, transparent, provide information to the public on Cabinet meetings or contracts?
    The unwritten clause as relates to any member of Parliament elected by the people are based on these requirements. No one would ever be elected to hold office if they provide information staying that these basic requirements would not be delivered. In essence whether they were written in the 2013 document or not they are an unwritten requirement by the people.


  4. heather there is nothing here to justify except to say one also have to be mindful of facts and factors that can hinder or negate all what was written as a promise and not a document that is legislative or legalling binding also bearing in mind that any or some circumstances might be a cause on which govt might have to renege to protect the country/s best interest which is foremost and legally bound within the framework of it constitution with a correct approach of not overburdening the people and country


  5. Bearing in mind , you are an idiot doing a yard-fowl job for the DLP.

    Alvin…and you knew and did not protest that either, you did not protest Cahill, you defended it to it’s death knell, both you and the ACs..retards….you are not protesting..convicted Canadian criminal, a known shady character Del Mastro.

    Again…it’s not the Hyatt being protested, it’s the compromised location, it’s the secret deals being made by government, without their seeking the people’s input, it’s the lying to and misleading the people by Dumbville Inniss and Fruendel’s acceptance by his silence, it’s Mark Maloney and his history of disrespect to the people and practice of breaking the island’s laws….condoned and enabled by government, why is that so hard for you to understand. ..it’s not rocket science.
