To make matters worse, the Bahamas Government already has all this information. They have it between VAT and the Company Registry.
They were just too stupid to to know that they had it and could have satisfied the OECD without making Bahamian owned and locally operated (No foreign tax liability that the OECD is interested in) companies go to all this trouble.
This is the result of incompetent civil servants doing the negotiations for The Bahamas.
Sky's lawyers probably obtained an 'interim injunction'. This is usually done done by one side when the time is very short and they have trouble serving the other side. If granted, the injuction is only for a day or two so as to allow the otherside to be served and reply and have a chance to argue why the injunction should not be removed or that it should be lifted.
That what looks to have happened reading this article.
That won't scare any investors away.
Our immigrationDepartment policies and operation is what scares foreign investment away.
The facts speak for themselves. The question is how we even the playing field? The report does not discuss the reason for the inequity in the system. What steps do we need to take? Is it the type of jobs that these women have? Is it that they are taking care of children without the assistance of the fathers? I can think of a number of women who refuse to let the baby daddy have any relationship with the child after he and she break up thus putting pressure on themselves and denying the child support that it would otherwise get.
The Country is broke. We need money for hospitals and schools yet we waste millions (the cost of several new schools a year) on a deadbeat airline.
New schools???....deadbeat airline????...Better hospitals????????....emmmm Lets spend it on the deadbeat airline....we government people don't care about the Bahamian voter.

What do you expect when the Drivers License test is little more than a joke.
Police are checking for speed on the open road but not neaer intersections.
Nevere see police at traffic light intersections or where frequently travelled roads meet main roads (lots of accidents there).
Watch police driving around carrying on conversations on their cell phones.
No one booked for not indicating or driving with their high beems on.
In both of the above cases one driver cut right infront of the car with the right of way thus T-bone crash.
