Amazing what one can do if you are
(I) not prosecuted for an illegal activity that you operated for years;
(ii) had your illegal activity legalized and,
(iii) are allowed to keep all your ill gotten gains tax and, virtually, penalty free.

I think that Eddie Victor should create his own power company for East and West End Grand Bahama so that we can have cheap power.

He can show the GBPA and GB Power how it can be done by doing it himself.

The auditing of the various Government Departments is a good start. Prosecute those who are guilty. If we don't prosecute the problems will continue.

I agree with Edison Sumner, we need to pass a Fiscal Responsibility Act right away. We also need to pass the Freedom of Information Act, amended as recommended by the NGOs.

The above three things would go a long way to putting the Country on a better financial footing.

It has already WASTED $25 million why should we waste more?

Pass the legislation first and then create the agency in accordance with the law.

Mr. Bell, the NIA was a lawless group, I won't even call it an organization. What law was there to stop it from spying on the PLP political opponents?

Good comments. Your are right "Enough talk...Get it done".

This has been a fly by night way of giving unscrupulous persons employment for too long.
It needs to be properly regulated.
Required:
1. Real License, for any one who drives a jet ski, that requires a certain number of hours of training and a written test. Limit the number of times the test can be written to 3 times.
2. Police back ground checks for any one who drives a jet ski.
3. Enforcement of the rules as to speed and how the beach is approached.
4. Large registration numbers on the jet ski so that it is clearly readable from 100 yards.
5. Compulsory liability insurance of not less than One million dollars.

That is for starters, they may be many additional items required.

John, Sir Lynden's policy was only in name. A study of education, currency rules, and immigration will show that the so called policy did nothing for Bahamians.

I don't think that he was complaining. As I read the article Symonette was saying that we need to review they way in which we process the application so that it has certainty and is done in a timely fashion.
To much about immigration is done on a whim. We need to put time frames in like other countries.
I have seen countries like Switzerland give a Bahamian a work permit in 2 weeks, and no that was not a temporary permit either.
Everything is still run like we are in the 1960's. The Bahamas has to move into the 21st Century and have set times. This will make everyone accountable to get the applications moving.

Wait a minute, this is a building with goods not yet cleared and there is no security

Maybe we should use some of the overstaffed (extra 200) Bahamasair employees to do the security.
