You would have think that proper consultation between the Immigration Department and the Ministry of Education would have taken place before the policy was announced. We operate in such an ad-hoc manner without any regards for protocol.Each Ministry appears to operate in a vacuum.
By the way Emac, I consider you one of the mentally challenge ones when it comes to this issue. Your reasoning is sound otherwise. You actually believe that their are more Haitian born children in our school system than Bahamian born. I can take you through Bain Town and there are some Bahamian chicks matching Haitians, baby for baby (lol).
Like I said, it is difficult to find reasonable minds on this topic. Like someone said in a previous blog, if you have a leak in your boat, fix the leak. Don't continue to bail water. Our immigration policy is bailing water which we have been doing for the past 60 years. Excuse me if I don't get excited by another Minister of Immigration coming with a bucket. How many lip service paid about the Defence Force having a robust base in Inagua.
The problem is that the Bahamas Central Bank is totally ignorant of monetary policy. The Federal Reserve in the United States have adjusted interest rates thousands of times to control the economy as compared to the Central Bank which have done it less than 30 time from its inception.Drop the discount rate and the mortgage rate falls automatically. The Government and its agent the Central Bank are culpable in the slavery mentioned by the PM.
You are wasting your time Economist. When it come to the Haitian issue you will be extremely challenge to find a reasonable mind. This is one issue that the mentally challenge and the intellectual agree on in the Bahamas.
MadHatter, if we follow your suggestion 90 % of the Bahamian population would be at the detention center. Who carries around a passport. A large percentage of the population don't have a passport thus no document to prove they are citizens. To prove they are citizens they would have to produce their and their parents birth certificate and if their parents was born before 1940 it becomes that more tedious to locate one.
I actually don't think the policy was properly thought off. At present you can send a child back to Haiti along with his parent because both the parent and child are illegal. It gets a bit more complicated if you give the child a visa which cements his/hers right to be here. It further begs the question if a child is legitimately here and is in need of guardianship and the parent is the the legal guardian shouldn't the parent also have the seem status as the child.
Mr. Mitchel is a master at publicity. His intent is to be in the public eye all the way up to convention when the new leader of the PLP is chosen should Perry leave. He is the most capable but the question of his sexuality is a barrier not easily overcome.
