To politicians and administrators, legislation is a means to attain their economic, cultural, political and social policies. Thus a State has to legislate in order to accomplish political objectives and particular public policies. The enactment of state of emergency legislation is such an objective that requires legislation. Law does not operate in a vacuum. A law is intended to guide and regulate the conduct and affairs of those to whom it is addressed. A sound knowledge of these conditions is very necessary. It is usual to consider laws from other jurisdictions in arriving at this knowledge platform. The scope of work for the project recognises this and requires a comparative analysis of existing legal and institutional frameworks for emergency response in both civil (applicable to Haiti and the Dominican Republic and common law countries (OECS and other participating countries). The legislation must provide a solution to the problem it is required to address. It is therefore necessary to thoroughly understand the issues in order to turn government policy into effective legislation. Comparing other laws on the subject that regulate similar problems that are being considered will broaden the understanding of the draftsman and enhance the legislative framework for state of emergency and improve accountability in disaster management. : Project Description: A. Consultant’s experience Environmental Advisors Inc. (EAI) is an environmental management firm that has been providing the highest quality consulting services in the Caribbean for nearly two decades. The Company is incorporated in Trinidad and Tobago. The firm works with its Caribbean and international expert associates to provide advice on all aspects of sustainable development management. Legal, policy and institutional issues are among the key focus areas of EAI. Other action areas include integrated water resources and natural resources management, sustainable energy, climate, engineering, natural resources economics, development planning and capacitybuilding. Judy Daniel is the President of the firm and its senior legal, institutional and international law expert. EAI has worked on a broad range of sustainable development issues for a variety of clients that include Caribbean governments, international, regional and public and private sector clients such as the World Bank, IADB, ILO, UNEP, UNECLAC, PAHO, OAS, OECS, CARICOM, CEHI, CARICAD, GWP/CapNet, NEDECO (Holland), UNEP, USAID, European Union, the Environmental Management Authority of Trinidad & Tobago, the Environmental Protection Agency of Guyana, Chester Engineers of Philadelphia, the USVI Legislature and recently the Republic of Ghana. The motivation of the firm is to make the best expertise available to the Caribbean.

The Work Schedule is also presented in a bar chart. In addition, a Financial proposal which provides a detailed cost breakdown is attached at Form 2 to this proposal. 1. Start of Assignment 1.1 Finalisation of Workplan & Timetable Inception 4 GS/OAS – CARIBBEAN EMERGENCY LEGISLATION PROJECT/Activity: Comparative Analysis of international legal and institutional frameworks The EAI Team and OAS Project Secretariat will hold an inception meeting via teleconference. The EAI Team leader will prepare an agenda for this meeting that will include a discussion on the draft project schedule and timetable. 2. Preparation of Preliminary Assessment Report on Key Legislative and Administrative provisions at the constitutional and supplementary levels related to state of emergency and budget appropriation and execution This exercise will include – (a) a review of state of emergency laws and institutional frameworks of civil and common-law countries to consider their scope and operability; (b) review periodicals, journals and other media that provide background information on the political, cultural, social and economic state of affairs that led to the enactment of the laws at paragraph (a) to determine the success of the legislation in solving the problems it was enacted to address; (c) identify and set out in a Table the key provisions in statutes, administrative provisions and international legal instruments that may be replicated in similar legislation in the PCs; (d) prepare a Preliminary Assessment Report on the matters mentioned at paras (a) –(c). 3. Conduct a comparative assessment study between the key legislative and administrative provisions of civil and common-law countries and Caribbean legislative and institutional frameworks This activity will – (a) take into account the assessments of the legal and institutional frameworks of Caribbean countries related to state of emergency1. (b) compare the provisions identified in the Draft Assessment Report at Activity 2(d) and the assessments made at paragraph (a) to identify the gaps, weaknesses and differences that occur between these two scenarios taking into account the circumstances described at Activity 2(b). (c) recommend the best approach[es] that should be adopted to improve the legal and institutional framework in the PCs. 4. Identification and assessment of effectiveness of legal and administrative provisions as regards channels of responsibility during a state of emergency. The Team will(a) Examine the legislative and administrative provisions of the selected civil and common-law countries to identify 1 Produced under the project. 5 GS/OAS – CARIBBEAN EMERGENCY LEGISLATION PROJECT/Activity: Comparative Analysis of international legal and institutional frameworks procedures and other administrative arrangements for state of emergency; (b) Identify the institutional arrangements for state of emergency (where legislation exists) or the institutional protocol that obtains for state of emergency in PCs. (c) Prepare a report identifying the similarities and differences between the two circumstances in paragraph (a) and (b) and recommendations as to their ability to be replicated in the PCs. 5. Preparation of Draft Final Report A draft final report will be prepared setting out(a) a set of best practices and recommendations for Caribbean and legal and institutional frameworks in developing state of emergency legislative frameworks and institutional arrangements (b) legislative provisions that could be considered in developing effective laws, institutional arrangements, procedures, budget appropriation and execution pertaining to state of emergency in natural disaster circumstances. 6. Revision of Draft Final Report The Team will (a) revise the Draft Final Report to take account of any comments or revisions proposed by the OAS/DSD; (b) prepare and finalise an Executive Summary for the Draft Final Report. The Executive Summary will contain, inter alia, recommendations at the national level, identify regional trends, similarities and differences between the PCs; regional recommendations. (c) submit Final Draft Report to OAS/DSD. Methodology The proposal is structured such that Environmental Advisors Inc. is the tendering consultant. Project outputs will be delivered by a two man team of associate consultants comprising Team Leader Dr. Jean Andre Victor and John Wilson. Dr. Victor is an international and constitutional law expert while Mr. Wilson is well-versed in matters pertaining to disaster management and post-recovery activities. EAI will provide no-cost overall project management support. The conception of a piece of legislation involves 3 significant processes. Firstly the formulation of the policy that leads to the enactment then the research undertaken and 6 GS/OAS – CARIBBEAN EMERGENCY LEGISLATION PROJECT/Activity: Comparative Analysis of international legal and institutional frameworks lastly the drafting of the Bill. Each piece of legislation has a policy and by legislation, policies are translated into law. Sound policy built on an understanding of the issues for which solutions are being sought is integral to the formulation of effective legislation. In response to this, EAI has combined the international law skill of Dr. Victor with the policy and practical knowledge of John Wilson as a joint team to deliver the project outputs. John Wilson oversaw the post hurricane recovery/rehabilitation work in Grenada, Tobago, Bahamas, Antigua, St Lucia and Dominica following the passage of Hurricane Ivan. His experiences are significant as regards both policy development and research aspects of the project. The activities were diversified: Grenada (11 medical clinics,250+ house repairs, 5 biodiversity projects and 6 schools repairs); Tobago (3 road stabilisations and community emergency capacity building of 45 residents ); Antigua (Safer building techniques) and in St Lucia and Dominica (community land stabilisation and flooding/landslide mitigation work in two communities) and in the Bahamas 20 new homes. All works were delivered on time and within budget despite programmatic issues including a late start, the additional impacts of hurricanes and shortages of materials. In partnership with the OECS Secretariat, Mr. Wilson also coordinated the development of a disaster risk reduction strategy (benchmarking tool; and has in the past conducted project Management for ICT/Disaster Project (CDERA). Dr. Victor also has specialised knowledge about the French and Spanish (civil) legal and institutional frameworks and their operations. The preparation of the Executive Summary to the Report, the Report and recommendations will be a joint team effort. The project will be conducted as a desktop study as the resources that are available will not cover field trips. 7 GS/OAS – CARIBBEAN EMERGENCY LEGISLATION PROJECT/Activity: Comparative Analysis of international legal and institutional frameworks b.
