  • 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.

  • Tom Adams - the Right Man at the Right Time
    I TOM ADAMS - THE RIGHT MAN AT THE RIGHT TIME THE FOURTH TOMADAMS MEMORIAL LECTURE by Sir Courtney N. Blackman Ph.D. The Errol Barrow Centre for Creative Imagination UWI, Cave Hill, Barbados - September 22"^^, 2008 I am honoured by the invitation of the Barbados Labour Party, the older of our two great political parties, to deliver the fourth annual lecture in memory of our second Prime Minister, Tom Adams, who contributed so much to the prosperity Barbadians enjoy today. In a recent address to the Old Harrisonian Society on the 275til anniversary of the school, I remarked on the good fortune of Barbados to throw up three great charismatic leaders in succession: Grantley Adams, who led the political phase of our revolution from the late 1930s to the mid 1950s; Errol Barrow, who laid the economic foundations ofthe new nation in the 1960s and early 1970s on a platform of massive investment in education, and Tom Adams who ensured the irreversibility ofthe revolution through his masterly management of the economy between 1976 and his untimely death in 1985. What is most important, they appeared in the right sequence - for none of them could have accomplished what the others were able to. Hence the title of my lecture, TomAdams - The Right man at the Right Time! A few weeks ago I had lunch with a World Bank consultant who was planning a Mission to Barbados. He was seeking lessons from our economic performance that might be applied to small states in the Pacific Basin. In fact, it was on Tom Adams' watch that the international financial institutions in Washington, DC first held up the 'Barbados Model' as an example to the developing world.

  • Sixth Tom Adams Memorial Lecture, 2015
    The Sixth Annual Tom Adams Memorial Lecture Title: Tactician and Strategist Extraordinaire and Transformative Prime Minister Delivered by Sir Richard Cheltenham Following is an edited version of the Sixth Tom Adams Memorial Lecture delivered by attorney-at-law and former Member of Parliament Sir Richard Cheltenham, QC, last Wednesday, March 11, at the Grande Salle, Tom Adams Financial Centre, The City, marking the 30th anniversary of former Prime Minister Adams’ passing. Tom Adams is, on any reckoning, one of the most outstanding and gifted Barbadians of our history. His contribution to party politics, the House of Assembly, the constituency of St Thomas and to the country and its governance has been large indeed. It is wholly appropriate, therefore, that his memory is being kept alive. It is commendable that for the last 30 years –– and today, too –– the constituency branch has placed a floral arrangement on his grave . It is only about ten years ago that this lecture series commenced. This evening’s lecture is the Sixth Tom Adams Memorial Lecture. They have not been annual, but they have been continuing. At the forefront of the efforts has been the Honourable Ms Cynthia Forde, the Member of Parliament for St Thomas. I want to recognize her for her untiring and enlightened efforts in regard to Tom’s memory, and for her caring and energetic service as a Member of Parliament. Sir Alexander Hoyos’ book Tom Adams: A Biography apart, much of what has been written to date relates to his role in sending Barbadian troops to St Vincent in December, 1979, to quell the disturbance at Arnos Vale.

  • The Role of Government in the Development of the Electricity Service in Barbados, 1911-1980
    The Role of Government in the Development of the Electricity Service in Barbados, 1911-1980 Henderson Carter Barbados has had a public electricity service since 1911, provided first by the Barbados Electric Supply Corporation and then its successor, the Barbados Light & Power Co., Ltd. Such a service, starting in the island’s capital city, Bridgetown, and moving into the rural areas, has been central the country’s development. In this essay I argue that government played a key role in the develop- ment of the service, first as facilitator through legislation in the period up to 1950. Then, with the coming of ministerial government and independence, government, in an effort to push its modernization program, placed pressure on the electricity provider to expand its operations and invested in the company. This expansion paved the way for the provision of a sound electricity infrastructure which secured the successful diversification of the island’s economy and the transformation of the society. Barbados is an island of 166 square miles, located east of the Caribbean archipelago. It has been an independent nation since 1966, having gained independence from Britain in a phased process of self-government. In the period after independence the island made significant strides, and in 1999, it was ranked twenty-ninth on the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) human development index, higher than any other in the Caribbean or Latin America. Economist Andrew Downes has explained this performance in terms of good management, political stability, social harmony, and the development of the infrastructure.1 1 Andrew Downes, “Analysis of Economic and Social Development in Barbados: A Model for Small Island Developing States,” United Nations Economic Henderson Carter <[email protected]> is lecturer in history at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill.

  • Budgetary Proposal and Financial Statement 2018
    The Hon. Mia Amor Mottley, Q.C., M.P. Prime Minister Minister of Finance, Economic Affairs and Investment Budgetary Proposal and Financial Statement 2018 “ALL ABOARD” June 11, 2018 Budgetary Proposal and Financial Statement 2018 ALL ABOARD - For Love of Country Mr. Speaker Sir, I stand before you....18 days since the good people of Barbados went to the polls and elected my party, the Barbados Labour Party, to office, with an overwhelming, indeed, an unprecedented mandate. This mandate, Mr. Speaker, was to stop the hemorrhaging and decay, and return our beloved nation to a status of pride and enjoyment by residents and to the admiration of friends and nations, near and far. 18 days after a 30 - nil victory, Mr. Speaker, I would much have preferred to be still celebrating. To be out thanking the good people of Barbados for the tremendous confidence they have reposed in me and the government that I have the honour to lead. But nothing discourages this more, than the first two paragraphs of the just released report of visiting experts from the International Monetary Fund: “Barbados is in a precarious economic situation. International reserves have dwindled to US$220 million, while central government debt is unsustainable. The fiscal deficit has decreased over the last few years but remains large, at about 4 percent of GDP in the financial year 2017/18. Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Barbados 1 (CBB) is reporting a contraction of output of 0.7 percent in the first quarter of 2018 over the same period last year. The Barbadian authorities, in close consultation with their social partners, are rapidly developing a plan to address current economic vulnerabilities.

  • Sir Grantley Herbert Adams
    SIR GRANTLEY HERBERT ADAMS Political legend, father of democracy, leader distinguished, visionary politician are but a few of the accolades used to describe Grantley Herbert Adams, first Premier of Barbados, and one of the Caribbean Region's most outstanding political leaders. The unprecedented accomplishments of Sir Grantley in the political liberation of Barbados, and advancing the cause of workers and the poor exploited masses, led his numerous supporters to perceive him as a messianic figure. The respect and reverence held for this great leader, often referred to as 'Moses" and "Messiah", lay in his unique ability to relate to and understand the needs of the ordinary folk in his country. On April 28, 1898, the course of Barbados history was charted with the birth of Grantley Herbert Adams to Fitzherbert Adams and the former Rosa Frances Turney. Born at Colliston Government Hill, St. Michael, he was the third of seven offspring of this union. He was educated at St. Giles School and Harrison College in Barbados. Sir Grantley, as he was popularly known, excelled and won a scholarship in 1918 which afforded him the opportunity to attend Oxford University in England pursuing studies in Classics and Jurisprudence. Grantley Adams was admitted to the Bar at Grey's Inn and functioned as a Counsel of Her Majesty, the Queen of England. He returned to Barbados in 1925, and in 1929 the former Grace Thorne became Mrs. Grantley Adams. Following his father's path, their only child, Tom Adams, also entered the legal profession and was elected the second Prime Minister of Barbados.
