Despite the finding of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) that the PPP/C-sponsored no-confidence motion against government was validly passed on December 21st, President David Granger and his Cabinet are continuing to meet and make decisions and spokesman Joseph Harmon yesterday said the administration has seen nothing that says it should do otherwise.
“We have seen nothing in the ruling of the CCJ that says that Cabinet should not meet and in fact Article [106 (6) and 106 (7)] speaks to the president and the government remaining in office and so this question of clarification, whether the Cabinet meets or not, is in fact one of the submissions made to the CCJ for them to give clarity. So, we will await the clarification,” Harmon, the Director General of the Ministry of the Presidency, said yesterday when asked if Cabinet was still meeting.
He was at the time responding to questions from the media at a post-Cabinet press briefing, which was the first such briefing held since the court’s announcement of its findings on the motion.
