Newsday is reporting that Culture Minister Joan Yuille Williams is expected to make an announcement on the proposed venues for Carnival 2007, today:
"Joan to end silence on Carnival venue
By SUZANNE SHEPPARD Sunday, December 17 2006
CULTURE MINISTER Joan Yuille-Williams is expected to break her lengthy silence on the contentious issue of the main venue for Carnival 2007 tomorrow. Well placed political sources told Sunday Newsday the Minister, who has been under fire from various quarters over a decision not to stage the festival at the Queen’s Park Savannah, will make a statement on the matter at a special sitting of the House of Represen-tatives tomorrow at 1.30 pm.
According to sources, Yuille-Williams will be delivering a “comprehensive statement” on the venues for next year’s Carnival celebration, including whether the Government will stick to a plan to demolish the Grand Stand and seek other locations for major competitions."

To be honest, I have heard this before only to be disappointed when no announcement was made. I am not getting my hopes up today that anything would be different than the last few times the Minister was supposed to make some sort of announcement. I will be keeping my ears wide open, however, just in case the "well placed political sources" are correct.

Morning Sauce!
Chick, the more I think about it, the more I am of the opinion that the safest option and also the one that will look the best in the public eye, is to agree to have 1 more carnival in the savannah and begin their demolition immediately after. In this way we get our "las' lap" and by the time 2008 roll around, we'd accept to carnival in the savannah because we'd actually see something in the way of construction happening there.
Morning Saucy! Bloggers!
I think they will let us know for sure today....i'm keeping my fingers, toes and hair crossed.

I'd consider holding my breath, but its a waste of time.
Nothing yet but it came over the news that Carnival 2007 is one of the subjects for debate in the House today so it looks like we will finally get some answers.
