    President of Barbados’ 2025 Christmas Message

  • Ms. Watson said “Our latest motion is intended to persuade the FTC to prevent the BL&P from proceeding with its rate application which, as a consequence of the FTC’s recent Depreciation Decision, is now known to be based on incorrect rates and calculations.  In this case Barbados Light and Power would be allowed to recover the cost of its investment in generation assets through depreciation. Depreciation calculations are key to value of the assets that are included in the rate base. Annual Depreciation expense is a key component in the revenue requirement calculation. Despite these concerns being raised by multiple intervenors over the past 6 months, the BL&P is still using incorrect rate information that is at odds with the FTC’s recent Depreciation Decision dated March 25th, 2022.

    STATEMENT FROM PRIME MINISTER MIA AMOR MOTTLEY ON THE PASSING OF FORMER SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE

  • Sir Henry served as Attorney General and Minister of External Affairs from 1976 to 1981and achieved an enviable post-Independence legislative record. It was only natural that he then became a major source of inspiration for me when I served as Attorney General. Many of us owe so much of what we have achieved as servants of the people to Sir Henry.
