well when the adjusters are using inaccurate construction costs then of course everyone is going to be under-insured. Such a racket. It should be the insurance companies responsibility to ensure the homeowner has adequate coverage. not the other way around. is that really fair business? does this open up a dialogue on consumer protections from predatory insurance companies? How about insurance companies denying coverage on wood homes when the wood homes held up better in many instances than the concrete ones. Until you have a mechanism to cover the cost of insurance for the indignant, the under-privileged, destitute or just retired without income persons then mandatory coverage is unethical at best.
With the extortionate cost of living in the Bahamas it is not unexpected that the majority of people can't afford insurance...
The Bahamas Government and Central Bank should consider whether forcing persons to sign the Conditions of Average Clause as unconstitutional. If the insurance agent or broker is too lazy to ensure that their client has adequate coverage then something is wrong with the industry.
How do you arrive at the conclusion that an elected politician has the wherewithal to design and engineer electrical infrastructure? are you that blinded by the PLP political rhetoric?
they leak. and they will leak continually forever. well maybe not while a tarp is on top but the bolts will wear holes in the tarps and then leak. i guess you could put Grace over it and that would keep them water tight for a few months. they are fibreglass panels bolted together every 8 or 10 inches. every single bolt hole will leak. and they have no ventilation.
is this a first for the bahamas? the first time a govt employee who got his job from his MP is actually maning up and taking responsibility for his actions. i hope this becomes a shining example of how to conduct oneself when in hte service of hte public.
