The idea was excellent. He stated that it benefited us. He is speaking as the Finance spokes person for the opposition. He is a former min of finance.
When you give a tax holiday you monitor its effect to see if it should be continued.
He needs to give the compelling facts. Insted, he is just running his mouth.

The major problem is that successive Governments have used NIB as a piggy bank. NIB is invested in government buildings, Bahamas Development Bank etc.

The government should fund half the deficit and the public the remainder.

Extra money is not needed. a few years ago the auditor was unable to find where 25% of the money was going in the PHA.

Clean up the PHA and you will find an extra $100 million plus a year. $100 million plus can do a great deal.

Fix the problem, don't through more money at it. If we spend more, very little if any, will be used for health and you will still be crying for money.

Clean up the PHA!

No wonder NIB is going broke. Bad investment policy.

Did he have a charter license or was he a "hacker"?

Did the plane operator have a 'Charter License' or was he a hacker?
