Micromanaging, inserting arbitrary edicts based on breakfast that day or some legitimate or obvious breach of a law? The PM is constrained by the law as much as any citizen.
And obviously should be. This speaks to tribal rule encroachment

Due process, rule of law, suspicion of unlawful behavior or fraud, warrants, a day in court.
Are there offenders? Repeat offenders? sure there are. We are trying to overcome 50 years of corruption and cronyism. This does not stop that however. Bowleg needs pulling up short and hard, and anyone above who sanctioned this action/process. What % of this "task force" even knows what they're looking for in documentation? The permitted Haitian burning 10 year old documents in a trash bin out back?

All well and fine until they realize prices will be stale dated as soon as posted!
Different suppliers, freight rates, market cost fluctuations, a pipe dream from a clueless government spark.
As to Brazil, and cutting out "US" Middlemen...... a perfect display of a lack of knowledge on market forces and quality control /shipping/ costing problems especially on time sensitive foodstuffs.

you cannot legislate away stupidity or non compliance, enforcement is the only tool that works.

They tax my groin and I’m gone!🤣

Weighed, measured and found wanting. Now can we move on with some sense of unity?

An URCA paycheck is a Government paycheck, they won't bit the hand that feeds them....
A useless organization.

The_Oracle says...

Government aught to wake up and stop trying to be the provider of everything and focus on potable water and Electric.
That which is "free" will always be in short supply.
Over the years Government has created so many carve outs and special deals that nothing is special ( or even marginal) anymore.

I’d say that was a no. Freeport is used to governments periodic attacks, this one is no different and right on schedule. Aside mumbling along and raising old fallacies and prejudices no plan was mentioned aside the large pay check/shake down plan.

Irritating when they cannot state clearly what they mean: they he poorest do not pay the most for their power bills, they do probably pay a disproportionately higher amount of their income for power. Apparently English isn’t our strong suit.
A sliding rate based on income is as rediculous as turning on power pre-election with huge outstanding balances remaining unpaid

On 'Poorest pay the most for electric’
