Girl....you had better get doggone certain!!!!!!! If you know you're going to do it already.......stop lying..... sick of the lies. When the weather turned cooler, yall talked about how BPL prices would drop when it had nothing to do with yall.....people just stopped using so much airconditioning. Now the first damn feel of heat.....here yall come taliking nonsense...getting ready to rape us of our money again all summer long.

This chicom dingbat is nothing but a lying mouth piece for corrupt Davis and the entire leadership of the now chicom controlled PLP.

CAN YOU JUST IMAGINE HER AND OTHERS LIKE HER PASSING LEGISLATION THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO DETERMINE WHICH CUSTOMERS CAN AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR THE ELECTRICITY THEY CONSUME, WITH THE GOVERNMENT DESIGNATED WEALTHIER HAVING TO PAY MUCH HIGHER ELECTRICITY COSTS FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUBSIDIZING THE MUCH LOWER ELECTRICITY COSTS THAT WOULD BE BILLED TO THOSE DESIGNATED LESS WEALTHY !!!!!!!

Meanwhile the foreign owned hotels, resorts and other developments will continue to get their generous electrical power concessions and government departments, agencies and SOE's will remain BPL's biggest delinquent debtors, to the tune of mega millions of dollars.

No sane Bahamian should ever vote for any PLP party candidate ever again. The party is no longer progressive ........ it is now down right communist!

And why doesn't corrupt Davis himself not forthrightly address what he is proposing and supporting here??!! He shamelessly let's others carry all of his bad water.

"*least able to pay paying more than large businesses”.*

The least able to pay is everyone. We hear all the time that revenue doesnt equal profit. So how can anyone determine who is "*more*" able to pay ridiculous electricity rates?

In the ammendment the tariffs have to be submitted to URCA, does IRCA have the right to reject them?

I'm not impressed by the minister at all, she speaks clearly but never appears to know anything. Whose fault that is, I dont know. The fuel hedge argument was a totally different argument to this one. The rates hikes post fuel hedge were supposed to span a few months and then lead to a return to "*normal*" rates, now here's a whole new plan that suggests "*some*" people might get some really altered, assumedly higher rates. She came to parliament to discuss a "*new plan*" 2 months or so ago, then when questioned about the rates suddenly we hear nothing's worked out yet and they have to go back and reassess... but you just presented the new plan(????)

And to be clear, being a minister and being able to have all these facts at your fingertips and debate without notes as the Pindling elite cabinet did, is **hard**. Our mistake is believing "*anybody*" can do this job, just look nice for the pics.

It may sound discriminatory because it is, but this job is not for any man off the street. Even among the educated you'd have to thin the crowd. First you have to be able to read, you have to have good comprehension skills, ability to communicate, leadership skills, excellent recall, good command of history, comprehensive understanding of law, ability to think on your feet and debate. Chatacter and ethics without those two we wasting our time. Could a man off the street have all those qualities? Yes, but he would be no ordinary man, he would be a born leader

Influence. You cant get into an argument with or strongarm everybody to get your agenda sold.. you could.. but..

LOL. You're certifiably nutzoid. Both Papa Doc and his son Baby Doc had all of the traits and qualities you describe, and look where Haiti has ended up.

Ill-tempered Jobeth should have long ago been locked up for her attempt to kill or cause serious bodily harm to a police officer using her car as her weapon of choice.

I think yall just have serious personal hatred for "*some*" people. I dont know if anybody would say Papa Doc had "good" ethics.

The likes of Jobeth and PM Davis are little more ethical than Papa Doc and Baby Doc were during their rule over the Haitian people.

Both Papa Doc and Baby Doc were able to read, had good comprehension skills, were able to communicate, possessed leadership skills, had excellent recall, enjoyed good command of history, had a comprehensive understanding of the laws they chose to ignore, and could think on their feet and debate, or should I say dictate. And yet they proved to be corrupt, evil and cruel to the core during the entire time of their respective dictatorships over the people of Haiti. Don't be fooled ....... Jobeth, like PM Davis, is not the least bit principled or ethical.

Two points: when you hear her blaming the opposition for the BPL situation after her government has been in power three years. And nothing has even been done to shore up generation capacity for the summer months. TWO: what is Power Management? The talks are about breaking BPL into three parts, but what is being done to increase and improve ‘power management?’ Something that can be very critical and essential to the future of BPL and its cost effectiveness
