As the 2009 netball season approaches and almost everyday of my existence, I am still being asked the same question all the time, " U get d transcript yet?" My answer is always the same "NO!"

With that said, I am going to provide my readers with some insight as to what has NOT happened and then you can decide.

After the incident had occured on May16th 2006 and the meeting with the then Disciplinary Committee was held, the Spooners Hill Netball Club and I were to each receive a copy of the transcript that was CONSTITUTIONALLY ours FOURTEEN ( 14) days after said meeting. It has never been done.

This is the last paragraph of the letter I received from the BNA dated May 25th 2006: With respect to a transcript of the hearing,as you are aware , the Secretary( name withheld) is out of the island at this time. Ms ( Secretary) is the person who took the notes at the Disciplinary hearing,which would necessitate her imput in the compiling of this transcript, in conjunction with the Disciplinary Committee. Immediately on her return to Barbados, the transcript will be completed and sent to you as REQUIRED.

Almost three years later, no transcript and this question can be asked , IS THE SECRETARY STILL OUT OF THE ISLAND?

More to follow.
