President of the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) Dr Ronnie Yearwood is questioning why eight months after Barbadians went to the polls, the official report on that general election has not yet been published.He contended that political parties need the information contained in that report for their planning, and the Government should be pressured to have it made available.“At this moment, if you can’t produce a report eight months after the election, something must be wrong,” charged Dr Yearwood, who was a panelist in the 12th online town hall meeting of the University of the West Indies (UWI) Faculty of Social Sciences Republicanism series, Constitutional Reform and the Republic: the Role, Functions, Legitimacy, and Capacity of Political Opposition on Sunday.“To say there is a certain dysfunctionalism within the major organisation in Barbados tasked with managing and reporting on elections, that is not good enough and that is something that the Government should be held to task for because there is either a staffing issue, there is a financial issue, there is a competence issue.
