Hon. Freundel Stuart, along with several members of Parliament and dignitaries, joined the congregation to commemorate the life of the late Barbadian hero before the official Errol Barrow Day this Thursday, January 21. Speaking during the service, the Prime Minister pointed out that this year’s com- memoration of The Late Errol Walton Barrow coincides with 50 years of Independence for Barbados, for which Mr. Barrow fought. He therefore stated that this is an even more significant rea- son to celebrate. Addressing recent criticism about the cost associated with the year-long 50th anniversary celebrations, the PM stated, “In every society you will find people who know the cost of everything but do not know the value of anything”.To reiterate his point, he said that there are people who will not go to the doctor claiming that the price is too high, not realizing that the visit to the doctor can impact the value of their life. Such comments, according to Stuart, does not surprise him as there were also people who thought, in Barrow’s time, that we should not become independent because it costs too much. Yet, even though only a few fought for and won Independence, it benefitted each Barbadian; namely,in the establishment of many schools, maternal benefits and the National Insurance Scheme.

Israel had been destroyed not because of the heart God; but because of the sin of the people, and because of Nehemiah’s humility in serving the King, favour was found on him and he was able to rebuild. It is like this ser- vant that Pastor Hunte says that Barbados should humble itself; if it wants to be restored to a place where A part of the congregation present for the commemoration service to launch Errol Barrow Week. there were fewer crimes and wrong do- ings. However, the Pastor stated that it takes the people of God to change the Pride of community and not just the Government. “It is easy to bash the Government but the people of God have to do the Barbados work in the spiritual before anything can be done in the natural. The two go hand in hand,” Pastor Hunte further explained.

  • Address by the Rt. Hon. Owen Arthur Prime Minister on the Occasion of the Re-Opening of the West Wing of Parliament
    ADDRESS BY THE RT. HON. OWEN ARTHUR PRIME MINISTER ON THE OCCASION OF THE RE-OPENING OF THE WEST WING OF PARLIAMENT NOVEMBER 22, 2006 2 In every form of Government known to mankind, and particularly in a Democracy, the land on which the Legislature is located is regarded with some reverence. Trollope captured that reverence well in the sentiments he put in the mouth of one of the characters of his novel “Can You Forgive Her”: “I have told myself, in anger and in grief, that to die and not to have won that right of way, though but for a session – not to have passed through those lamps (on either side of the St. Stephen’s entrance) – is to die and not to have done that which it most becomes an Englishman to have achieved”. Thus, the mere mention of the Palace of Westminster or Capitol Hill to mention two such familiar locations, conjures up in the mind locations which are not mere pieces of real estate, but places of deep constitutional and historical significance, where the people’s business is conducted and the outcome of their democratic right to vote finds practical expression. I am sure therefore that you appreciate as I do, the importance and significance of the reopening of the West Wing of our Parliament Buildings. It bears repeating that within the Commonwealth of Nations, our Parliament, is the third oldest political institution. Only the Parliament at the Palace of Westminster and the Parliament in Hamilton Bermuda are older; and our Parliamentary System of Representative Government is therefore 367 years old.

    Remarks by the Rt. Hon. Freundel Stuart, Prime Minister of Barbados, on the occasion of the High-level Strategic Dialogue "CARICOM: Vibrant societies, resilient economies: a partnership for Implementation" July 2 - 3, 2015 Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre Colleague Prime Ministers, Ministers of Cabinet, Excellencies, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen: I am delighted to endorse the sentiment already expressed by Foreign Minister Maxine McClean and to welcome you once again to this High Level Strategic Dialogue, entitled "Vibrant Societies; Resilient Economies: A Partnership for Implementation". I am especially pleased to see a number of my fellow heads of government of CARICOM countries and to be able to welcome amongst us the Secretaries-General of the United Nations, the Commonwealth and the Organisation of American States. I also extend a word of thanks to the many organisations and individuals who have made this gathering possible and who will be contributing to our discussions today. Among these, I thank, in particular, Sir George Alleyne, Chancellor of the University of the West Indies, distinguished Caribbean scholar and leader who will be the moderator of today's session. Allow me to begin by addressing, head on, as it were, a line of thinking about events such as this one and, for that matter, the Conference of CARICOM Heads of Government which will begin later today, here in Barbados. These are, say the critics, mere talking shops, unconnected to the needs of our societies, more focussed on rhetoric than reality. Almost exactly 21 years ago, in these very halls, Barbados created history by hosting the First United Nations Global Conference on the Sustainable Development of Small Island Developing States (SIDS).

In this critical passage of our history, the Social Partnership has played a vital role. We have committed to a voyage for love of country and we must see it through. We must stay the course. Much progress has been made. Important points along the way have been seen and passed. The IMF’s approval of the Barbados Economic Recovery and Transformation Plan; the domestic debt restructuring and a budget surplus. But, trust me, everyone knows we cannot rebuild in 10 months what they destroyed in 10 years. And even as we embark on this path, we have been beset by some major challenges, led of course by the issue of gun-related violence. It is a scourge we will not ignore or tolerate and we have already begun taking steps to counter. We must and we will do all in our power to save your young people. And the international background today has made the task harder than ever before. Brexit has curbed the enthusiasm for travel from our largest source market. The OECD has forced us to abandon a 30-year old separation of tax rates between international and local business.

  • The History of Political Independence and Its Future
    The Time of Sovereignty: The History of Political Independence and its Future Dr. Richard Drayton Monday, November 28, 2016 Frank Collymore Hall Tom Adams Financial Centre It is a great honour, pleasure and privilege to give the Sir Winston Scott Memorial Lecture of the Central Bank of Barbados. It is particularly moving to me to look out at this crowd of 500 and see so many people I have known for over forty years, and in particular so many of the elders who formed me. I am conscious that my predecessors include such senior figures in the history of economics as Ernst Schumacher and the Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz and such deans of Caribbean intellectual life as Rex Nettleford and Gordon Rohlehr. I am particularly humbled, as a Barbadian, to give this 41st Lecture as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of the independence of Barbados. (Clearly, Rihanna was unavailable). I came to this island from Guyana only as a boy of 8. So it was not from hazard of birth but mature choice that I joined you in citizenship. I take no second place to the birth right Bajan in my love for this rock in which my roots are tangled with yours for all time. Our 50th anniversary is a joyful occasion. It is at the same time as a sobering one, when one reflects on the generations of ancestors, living and dying under conditions of the most extraordinary inhumanity, who made our presence today possible. If this Golden Jubilee celebration has any meaning, we need to remember why we sought political sovereignty.

    The Tom Adams Memorial Lecture by Senator Dr Jerome Walcott Thursday, September 22, 2016 At the Errol Barrow Centre for Creative Imagination ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intellect, Vision and Fortitude, in an Island State: The Tom Adams Story 1 | P a g e In my opinion Tom Adams was one of the greatest Barbadians who ever lived and is the most visionary leader we have ever had. I say this because; He conceptualised the construction of the ABC Highway – the major thoroughfare in Barbados today! He initiated the development of the International Business sector – the number two foreign exchange earning sector in Barbados for the last several years. He was the architectbehind the Plantation Tenantries Freehold Purchase Act – that has enabled thousands of Barbadians to purchase land and build their own homes. He was responsible for the establishment of the National Drug Service – which ensured that Barbadians of all ages could get medication free or at minimal cost. He was the driving force behind the establishment and promotion of the Credit Union movement – which has helped thousands of Barbadians to own homes, land, vehicles and to start businesses. He was the catalyst for women’s upward mobility in society and the removal of the concept of illegitimacy which gave legal rights of inheritance to thousands of children born out of wedlock. And he pushed for the establishment of the NCF – which is at the centre of Barbados’ cultural and artistic renaissance. The Hon. Mia Mottley, Leader of the Opposition, former Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Owen Arthur, current and former Parliamentarians, members of the Diplomatic Corps, distinguished ladies and gentlemanGood evening.
