Progressive Liberal Party Chairman Bradley Roberts said the party still intends to hold a convention this year and will do so as soon as Baha Mar opens its doors. Roberts told The Guardian on Thursday that his team had just met to discuss the convention. He said the PLP wants to be the first party to hold a convention at the multi-billion dollar resort.

On Tuesday, Baha Mar Senior Vice President of Administration and External Affairs Robert Sands was unable to say when the resort w ill open. Baha Mar was set to open on March 27, but was delayed until the first week of May. It was originally scheduled to open last December. When asked about the new date for the mega resort to open, Sands said officials have announced the project is delayed, but suggested a new date for the resort's opening has not been set.

The PLP was originally scheduled to have its convention in 2013, but it was postponed until November 2014. In the meantime, the party held several mini conventions on the Family Islands. The PLP last held a convention in October 2009.
The party is mandated by its constitution to hold a convention annually.
