Thats fine they can even triple it. One thing i know there will be no-one held accountable for this. So they will do it again. I am not even sure if the Government (past and present) have any idea what budget means and how to create one.
Just checking, if someone is given Bahamian citizenship does that mean their children already born are automatically Bahamian, or is it only the ones born after the father received it?
Great news, just in time for many people to try and get home from work. They must have had the brightest minds thinking of how to do this at the best time. Don't know why they don't just close bay street permanently as they like to do it so often.
Thats right, Move West bay Street off the seaside. Then we can sell that land to foreigners so we can't see the sea. Also on the idea of a footbridge, sounds great until you realize that people won't use it and there will be no consequences by law.. So no point in wasting that money.
Can the tribune check where large taxpayers have 3-7 days to file and pay. A quick look online showed that the UK and Europe is over a month after, Trinidad is 25th day and Barbados is 21 days. So where is the countries that have to file in 3-7 days. Also there is no way the Government will be able to make all the large companies have an audit by March 31st with the number of auditors we have here. We will need to import a lot more to do that. It is very scary that the secretary responsible for Finance says stuff like "I think people make these statements generally, but this is the 21st century Bahamas not the 20th century. We have quite a few auditors and audit firms." when he obviously does not understand what it entails.
