Air Jamaica Report
OFFICE OF THE CONTRACTOR GENERAL Special Report of Investigation and Monitoring Conducted into the Procurement Practices of Air Jamaica Limited (Formerly) Ministry of Finance and Planning EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The investigation into the Procurement and Contract award practices of Air Jamaica Limited was initiated by the Office of the Contractor General (OCG) on 2006 May 23. On 2006 May 16, the Office of the Contractor General received a letter from Mrs. Sharon Weber, who wrote on behalf of the Financial Secretary in the Ministry of Finance and Planning. The letter confirmed that Air Jamaica Limited was a Public Body by virtue of the Government’s one hundred percent (100%) ownership as stipulated by Part 1 (Section 2) of the Public Bodies Management and Accountability Act, 2001. Air Jamaica Limited has been through ownership changes over the last 15 years. Most recently - in 2004 December - the airline was reacquired by the Government of Jamaica following almost a decade of privately managed operations. Consequently, Air Jamaica Limited, as of 2004 December, is deemed to be a ‘public body’ as defined within the Contractor General Act (1983) and is required to adhere to the Government Procurement Guidelines. The investigation of the entity focused primarily on procurement activities between May 2005 and August 2008 and incorporated the OCG’s monitoring of the airline’s procurement activities up to, and including, August 2008. The period under review commences approximately six months after Air Jamaica Limited returned to the ambits of government control. It is perceived that this period should have provided the agency with some amount of __________________________________________________________________________________________ Air Jamaica Investigation Office of the Contractor-General 2008 September Page 1 of 33 time to acclimatize itself with stipulated government policies, thereby effecting a smooth transition from a private to a public entity as it relates to procurement practices. -

To Dr. Kirby Gilliland, for all the reasons a floundering student is indebted to a mentor of such caliber, for sticking with me through the challenges we hurdled when, as far as I can see, there was no motivation to do so except for the belief that, with guidance, I could succeed, and for being for me the example of how to personally define perseverance, you have my sincere and permanent gratitude.

Wet Leasing (ACMI) First Supreme Court Ruling on a Consequential Damages Waiver
Wet leasing (ACMI) First supreme court ruling on a consequential damages waiver Ángel Carrasco Perera Professor of Civil Law, Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha Academic counsel, Gómez-Acebo & Pombo This judgment is interesting because it resolves at least one doubt: the validity of the consequential damages waiver clause in commercial contracts. 1. The wet lease agreement and the Barajas accident Iberworld Airlines filed a claim against Mapfre, seeking a determination of liability of Aena and Air Comet and, consequently, of Mapfre, as insurer of both, for the purposes of receiving compensation for damage sustained by the Airbus A330 MSN 0670 aircraft on 28 May 2008 at Barajas airport. The aforementioned airlines had entered into a wet lease agreement under which Iberworld Airlines would provide a duly equipped aircraft to carry out the commercial passenger flights agreed thereunder. "Neither party shall be liable for loss of use or consequential damage arising out of the aforementioned or other services under this Agreement". Disclaimer: This paper is provided for general information purposes only and nothing expressed herein should be construed as legal advice or recommendation. Analysis | March 2021 1 A collision occurred at Barajas airport in which the Airbus was damaged during a taxiing ma- noeuvre of the aforementioned aircraft from its parking space in the satellite building of Terminal 4 to Terminal 1 for a flight operated by Air Comet. According to the claim filed by Iberworld, an Aena Follow Me, which was guiding the convoy, did not respect a waiting point (stop) on the A-11 section of the road parallel to runway 33 and the airport's Surface Movement Control did not manage the movement correctly either; this caused the aircraft to brake abruptly to make way for a Vueling aircraft, which was travelling on the preferential runway. -
