Does anyone remember the pipe scandal and the resulting resignation of the Minister or Ervin Knowles who also did the right thing. We have lost our moral compass.
I agree. The Regulations are on-line "Companies Non-Profit Organisations) Regulations, 2014" and are all about terrorist financing and the Anti Terrorism Act.
Bahamians maybe guilty of many things but terrorism is not one of them.
So the Registrar thinks that100 of the Non-Profits might be sponsoring terrorism? This Regulation, as I read it speaks only to financing of terrorism.
Don't you have to have a reasonable suspicion before you ask? If not, then you can use it as an excuse to look at anyone the government does not like.
So you also sent a letter to the BNT and Breef as well, of course not. What active non-profits like reEarth and the like? Others that have filed cases to protect the environment, something the National Trust and Breef are to scared to do, have you sent them a notice?
Dare you to publish the list of those served with a notice.
