The Working People’s Alliance (WPA) yesterday said that while the holding of timely elections must be at the top of the government’s agenda, it should not inhibit it from carrying out its normal functions.
“There is no such thing as a half-government—there is either a fully empowered government or none at all,” the party, a member of the APNU coalition, said in a statement yesterday, in wake of the pronouncements by the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) on the result of the passage of a no-confidence motion against the government last December.
While resisting arguments for the issuance of coercive orders for the holding of polls, the court said effect has to now be given to Article 106 (6) and (7) of the Constitution.
