St. Ann Municipal Corporation Office of the Contractor General November 2017
A:
The agreement is there already, verbal
agreement is there; you go out there
with them and you show them the work.
CHAIRMAN:
I am just repeating what you said. As you
say it I am just repeating it.
A:
Oh.
CHAIRMAN:
You are saying that contractor (x) you
say to him...
A:
Normally we don't ask them to sign this
unless we go out there and look at the
work to see that it’s satisfactorily done
first, because if we go out there and the
work is not satisfactorily done, is either
we ask them to fix it up or something or
would indicate to them that it can't be
paid without it being done.”

Having regard to allegations which were made that contractors were required to sign, in some instances,
“blank forms”, the Contractor General directed the following questions to Ms. Henry:
“CHAIRMAN:
…
Miss Henry, when you say the process
that you follow in terms of the contract
being signed after the work is done,
have you had persons sign blank forms?
A:
No, I have never done it.
CHAIRMAN:
When you have persons sign the
description is filled out by you?
A:
Yes I wrote it.
CHAIRMAN:
And you filled also all the others?
