BOTH THE BARBADOS UNION OF TEACHERS (BUT) and the Barbados Association of Principals of Public Secondary Schools (BAPPSS) say they are on board with Government’s desire for a return to face-to-face classes in January, but only if it is safe to do so. They were responding to the announcement by Chief Education Officer Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw yesterday that with the new school term beginning on January 10, schoolchildren could be back in the classroom at that time. #thechasefiles #education #barbadosschools #educationinbarbados #TheSourceMatters #NationBarbados #Barbados https://www.instagram.com/p/CWS4YnGL2BT-CrSTrac__mP2tU23ub7bOUr9UE0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Former Government minister Donville Inniss was today sentenced to 24 months in a federal prison to be followed by 24 months supervised release.

Inniss must surrender to authorities by July 30, 2021. His attorney has until September 2 to certify he surrendered.

United States Judge Kiyo Matsumoto of the Eastern District Court of New York took into consideration his previously clean record, his personal development and having come from a poor background as well as his community and national service in Barbados.

The judge said the US$36 000 could not be the sum total of the measure of the offence since the action had the potential to undermine the American financial system.
