ABSTRACT
Following the Maurice Bishop take-over of power in Grenada, from 19 March 1979 to October 1983, the law prevailing was that of the Provisional Revolutionary Government, a body which had vested in itself, by People’s Law No 2 of 1979, ‘all executive and legislative power’. After the American military intervention, the Governor-General returned Grenada to constitutional government and, by the Constitution of Grenada Order 1984, restored virtually all sections of the Grenada Independence Constitution. Return to constitutional validity thus took place, notwithstanding the previous irregularities.
