This is the Housing ministries responsibility or Abaco local government. All these extra taskforces just signal that government national and local had no body to ensure these thing were done right in the first place.

What is the point of the ministry???

Well I'll say simply:

If you live in a country where you are encouraged to drive everywhere and have poor public transit
expect to be poorer by couple $1000's of dollars every year.

Money for gas
Money for Insurance
Money for Licensing
Money for Vehicular Repair (Regular and Emergency)

That also doesn't account for an a car accident expenses nor the external affects of high car use on others. Air Pollution, Noise, and Road safety risk.

It is a nice proposal they are doing here but we don't need more Gated development far out west, we need more downtown mixed use development with good access to reliable public transit. I mean look at the buildings on Bay and Shirley St. Loads of them are empty either completely or on the upper levels unused.

It is basic good city planning.

In the UK National Lottery
53% go to prizes
25% go to Good Causes
12% go to the Government (As tax)
4% go to Retailer's (Gaming Houses)
5% go to the National operator
4% go to covering cost
1% go to profit

The National lottery solution should be a top priority, However at the very least all Gaming Charitable Monies should fall under National control. Getting rid of Island Luck Cares etc., because its not really good to have these vested industries picking and choosing who gets helped.

We also need a National Charity Regulation to regulate and officialize charities to receive funding from taxation.

Proceeds should go to charities and organizations like the Ranfurly Home, The Dundas, pha, nhi, National Feeding groups, National Renewable Energy Groups, Public Housing & Urban Renewal, Public Transport, and Sports Program/Venues.

A Handgun isn't legal for the general public and rarely is there a situation where you'd end up pointing your firearm, nonetheless a handgun, at police unless you're trying to kill them.

In this case is a handgun not shotgun so no need for the speculative remarks. If you would want more police accountability, As I do, I would recommend supporting Body Cam introduction to the RBPF

So NEMA is doing what its supposed to in the first place? Managing National Emergencies.

Exactly, those insurance companies out off all need to be capped and taxed. At least Atlantis employs thousands directly and indirectly.

This sounds like corporate greed and nepotism mixed together.
