By BBN Staff: Our newsroom is in possession of a leaked memo from Chief Elections Officer, Josephine Tamai, to her staff.

In the memo she indicated that despite the interim injunction, her staff should proceed with planning for the referendum as per normal.

“We need to be fully prepared in the event the court informs that we proceed,” she wrote.

Today the Supreme Court granted an interim injunction regarding the scheduled referendum.

Prime Minister Dean Barrow, however, has indicated GOB will file a submission for an appeal in an attempt to have the referendum held next week as scheduled on Wednesday.
