UNC loses because they over-criticise and just come off as bitter. Here you are, boldface lying and refusing to acknowledge it.

The UNC claimed GP:
was used and old
damaged and written off
overpriced
underpriced
didn't have proper procurement
would take 6hrs to travel the bridge
uncomfortable

Give it up nah, when you over protest the issue and you embellish and lie, nobody listens to you

u forgot it was damaged in the trials, and thats why venezuela rejected it. they paid for new, they wnat new.

one of the four props struck a bank and damaged the prop and shaft.
and then u heard that the shaft of one of its cooling pumps had damage. that coudl be due to excessive vibration from the bent main shaft.

it dont have no shame in saying that u bought a scratch and dent. i mean, greece did it with the panorama. but u hve to pay scratch and dent price, not new brand.

Sex Addict Habit7 will never admit to that.

He will however present very misleading articles that has nothing to do with the topic.

I thought Venezuela rejected it because they were broke. It was never delivered so we bought it new.

So this bent shaft for three years going strong boy? Strong enough to go SVG and back. If the UNC had spent less time spreading fake news on GP and actually did their work, they might have been comfortable in govt today giving big contracts to Cadiz like what they did with the Water Taxis Manning bought. But today GP running smooth 3 years later to the vexation of their supporters.

It's very easy, because of the amount of boats available it's very easy to get a sailing on the day, you can even choose your preffered vessel, just line up and tell them your itinerary and vessel based on the schedule , a day or two in advance should be more than enough for any planned trip .

Here's a link to the schedule in real-time .

High Court clears Nyree

‘Superfast Galicia’ case...

ATTORNEY Nyree Alfonso was yesterday cleared by the High Court of any wrongdoing in a civil claim brought against her by the Port Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (PATT) and the Office of the Attorney General.

The claim had to do with Alfonso’s alleged breach of fiduciary duty in assisting the authority in sourcing a vessel to replace the MV Warrior Spirit to service the inter-island seabridge.

Also cleared of any wrongdoing by Justice Joan Charles were Intercontinental Shipping Ltd (ICSL) and its managing director John Prowell.

The claim was brought against the defendants in 2018, after Alfonso was accused of committing the act during the period December 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014, while she acted in the capacity of attorney for the Port Authority by procuring the award of a contract to ICSL, her agent.

The State was contending that Alfonso had reviewed the case for the termination of the authority’s arrangements for the Government Shipping Service with the owners of the MV Warrior Spirit and identified the MV Superfast Galicia (MVSG) as its preferred replacement.

The authority was arguing that she then appointed ICSL as her agent to tender for the contract. ICSL was also the agent MVSG eventually won the contract with Alfonso, allegedly benefiting financially from the $148 million paid by the Government to ISCL for the replacement vessel.

‘Unfortunate’ wording of letter

During the course of the trial, last year, Alfonso denied this had taken place.

She explained under cross-examination by Dr Claude Denbow that she had mistakenly received an invitation to tender from the authority on February 26, 2014, and in turn, mistakenly wrote a letter that purported to appoint ICSL as her agent.

Alfonso had testified that she only intended to assign the tender documents to ICSL since it was interested in placing a bid for the contract and sought to correct the error on February 28. She stated the wording of her letter was “unfortunate” and that the error was made mainly because at that time she was the non-executive chairman at First Citizens Bank and was consumed with other events.

“It was not what I had intended. It was just for him (Prowell) to use the tender documents that were also sent to me in error...It was an error, a very unfortunate error on my part. I was faced with an error myself because the tender came to me and I was attempting to bring redress to that,” she had testified.

The judge’s difficulty

In her ruling, Justice Charles said an important limb of the case against Alfonso was that she had “deliberately diverted” to ICSL the commercial opportunity provided by the Invitation to Tender to be exploited on her behalf by excluding another company, Astralship, from the tender process.

“However, the evidence clearly showed that Astralship had been invited to tender by (Alfonso) soon after her receipt of her Invitation to Tender,” the judge said.

In addressing Alfonso’s explanation of the error made, Justice Charles said she had to confess that she had some difficulty in accepting the explanation.

“She has admitted that it was wrong to indicate that the Third Defendant (Prowell) was her agent and claimed that that was not her intention. However, I must take notice of the fact that Ms Alfonso is a very experienced attorney-at-law involved in a specialised area of practice—Admiralty Law over a period of some 25 years.

“As the content of her requisition to the PATT shows, a significant part of her duties to this client, and, I dare say, to other clients as well, involves analysing and writing correspondence, drafting contracts including charter parties as in this case. In my view, every attorney-at-law, especially one of Ms Alfonso’s knowledge and expertise understands legal and indeed all correspondence must be clear, cogent and precise, conveying exactly what the writer means since legal consequences may flow therefrom,” said the judge.

However, the judge added that the authorship of the letter was not sufficient without more to ascribe a breach of fiduciary duty on Alfonso’s part.

“This evidence must be assessed in the context of all of the evidence in the case. While the letter was ill-advised especially when one considers the fact that the First Defendant is an experienced attorney-at-law, her letter of February 26, 2014, and that of Mr Prowell of the same date cannot, without more, establish that they were acting in concert as principal and agent,” the judge said.

Given her findings, Justice Charles dismissed the claim against all three defendants on several grounds. These grounds included that the claimants had been unable to satisfy the court on a balance of probabilities that Alfonso had breached her fiduciary duty or that ICSL and Prowell had acted as her agent or nominees and derived a pecuniary benefit for her and themselves.

Leading the case for Alfonso was senior counsel Sophia Chote along with attorneys Shiv Sharma, Asif Hosein Shah and Ananda Rampersad, while Jonathan Walker and Cherie Gopie appeared for ICSL and Prowell.

PATT: Appeal imminent

3 parties cleared in acquisition of ‘Galicia’...

THE Port Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (PATT) has indicated its intention to “immediately” appeal a High Court decision in which attorney Nyree Alfonso and two other defendants were cleared of any wrongdoing in the acquisition of the MV Superfast Galicia.

On Thursday night the PATT issued a media release stating that an appeal of the judgment handed down by Justice Joan Charles on Tuesday was “imminent” and it believed that based on advice received from senior counsel, there is a “good chance of success”.

The media statement also took issue with comments made by Alfonso to the media following the delivery of the judgment, in which she said the claim against her, Intercontinental Shipping Ltd (ICSL) and its managing director, John Prowell, was brought by the State out of “spite”.

PATT described Alfonso’s comments as “self-serving and without foundation”.

It stated the civil claim was brought against the three following the careful consideration of legal advice received from eminent senior counsel and that it will allow due process to take its course.

On Tuesday, Justice Charles dismissed the Port Authority’s claim that was filed in 2018, in which it alleged Alfonso breached her fiduciary duty between December 2013 and July 2014, after she was retained to assist it to help procure a new vessel to service the inter-island seabridge.

It alleged she was associated with ICSL, it being her agent, and assisted in its successful tender in exchange for financial gain from the $148 million paid to ICSL for the Galicia to replace the Warrior Spirit.

The judge had found the Port Authority failed to establish that Alfonso did, in fact, act in breach of her fiduciary duty. Justice Charles also found neither ICSL nor Prowell acted as her agents to derive a pecuniary ­benefit.
