INTRODUCTION TO THE EDITION

Lucas Jonas Editor-in-Chief

The University of the West Indies Cave Hill Campus’ Student Law Review has, for many years, given students of Law at Cave Hill an opportunity to express themselves and voice their opinions on various matters of legal significance in the Commonwealth Caribbean. It is with much pride that in closing my stint as Chairman of the Publications Committee at Cave Hill, I introduce the 29th Volume of the Cave Hill Student Law Review.

The primary purpose of this year’s edition of the Review is preserving tradition and ensuring the continuity of the Student Law Review as a platform for the publication of student research and ideas. To this end, I thank all applicants, and wholeheartedly congratulate the select authors whose submissions are contained in the following pages. Your work, diligence and self-discipline are a source of great pride for the University, and it is my hope that future generations of students at the Cave Hill Campus and curious minds alike will read your work, in the pursuit of knowledge and inspiration.

The format and style of this year’s publication was modelled substantially after older editions of the Student Law Review, with reference also having been made to The Oxford University Undergraduate Law Journal.

Special thanks to Paul Mc Burnie, whose determination and persistence ensured the completion of this year’s Cave Hill Student Law Review.
