  • 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.

  • Voluntary Carbon Offsetting 44 1-3%
    FACT SHEET #11 / NOVEMBER 2020 VOLUNTARY CARBON OFFSETTING A number of airlines already offer voluntary carbon offsetting for passengers, how do they work? Each flight produces carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and whilst there are a lot of things being done by airlines to reduce the fuel use and CO2 emissions, often passengers would like to know how they can help lower the CO2 footprint of their travel. Voluntary carbon offsetting is one option available to passengers, either through an airline programme directly, or a third-party offset provider. What are offsets? 44 A large number of corporate travellers The name ‘offset’ can cover a variety of sources of CO2 reduction. It is a way to compensate for CO2 being produced airlines offer and individual in one area, by helping to fund a project which reduces CO2 in voluntary carbon passengers will another area. offsetting offset through third- programmes to party providers: we For example, if a passenger’s flight produces 2 tonnes of passengers. have no visibility CO2, they can choose to help fund a project which provides renewable energy to replace 2 tonnes of fossil fuel-related Half of the world’s 20 on the uptake of CO2 production. largest airlines offer offsets through these offsetting. sources.

  • Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
    BIRD TOURISM REPORTS 7/2016 Petri Hottola GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS Fig. 1. An Antillean Nighthawk, one of the birds seen during the short Grand Cayman visit. In 2016, June 18th to 20th, I made a brief visit to the island of Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. The visit was not without its problems, notably those with American Airlines delays and cancellations. Moreover, my need to save money on this exceedingly expensive (accommodation) island resulted in a program not everybody would consider their piece of cake. Nevertheless, some of the mistakes and successes of this trip might be informative or inspiring to other birders who intend to visit Grand Cayman. The target birds were seen, after all. I therefore decided to write a few lines in the form of the following report. This was actually my second visit in Grand Cayman. In 2013, on my way to Cuba, I was in transit in George Town, with Cayman Airways flights. The plan was to look for the near-endemic Vitelline Warbler in a promising spot next to the airport. Unfortunately, nobody was able to confirm our departure time. It could be delayed or early, and I therefore had to check in at once, not being able to leave the building, as planned. Cayman Airways, Bahamasair and various other regional airlines operate in their own cultural realm, in which timetables are not followed the way the rest of the world follows them. It is the so called ‘Caribbean Time Zone’. As a result, I needed to return to Grand Cayman in 2016, and overnight there.
