A scaling back of Prime Ministerial power, the crafting of a well-defined consultation process and a reform of the system of voting in Barbados are among the recommendations of a leading political party in Barbados.The suggestions were put forward by President of the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) Dr Ronnie Yearwood, as authorities continue to hear views as part of a constitutional reform exercise, a year after the country officially became a republic.Insisting that nothing much had changed in relation to governance and constitutional processes since November 30, 2021, Yearwood said there were some pressing issues that should be addressed in a new constitution.
