Bahamas is broke but the Government and politicos still won't get the hell out of the way and do the only thing government can do: get the hell out of the way.
URCA's "buy all sell all" is directly taken from emera g.b.'s play book in Grand Bahama.
It seems URCA is no smarter than the G.B. Port Authority when it comes to regulatory responsibility.
It is interesting to note EMERA can not, nor would not try such an asinine policy in any other jurisdiction they operate in. Google is your friend.

Large countries cannot come together to combat climate change: large countries can come together to mitigate mans effect on climate change.
Small countries can't do diddly squat, especially without large countries permission and funding.
Get real dude.

Government is intrinsically lazy and while law provides for the process most in government are not acquainted with the proper procedure.
Meanwhile no mention of the disposition of the catch........

God forbid you put smart meters on delinquent Government accounts.
Also be aware of the smart meters potential to burst into flames. Proven.
They are plastic, not glass. They burn.
$66 mil delinquent, but over what time period? how much has been written off as uncollectible over the last 5/10/20/30 plus years?
3 years in and Shell is still hanging in? Kudos for having patience with our incompetent utility operators.
How does hitting a "reset button" wipe away the debt, the mess, the incompetence, the legacy of disgrace that is BPL/BEC?

Exactly, built too low, both ends terminate even lower will always flood as they built it far too short, open and deepen the flow from north to south, remove the high north side berm from around Freeport harbor designed to keep locals out, it drives the water into EMR and down town Freeport.
I don't know which is worse, no planning (like Nassau) or Bad planning (Port and Government in GB)

So No Bahamians meet the criteria, so you hire Foreigners who don't meet the criteria.....
I swear there is no competency left in the Bahamas Government.

"If executed properly" is the fly in this ointment.
"If maintained properly" is another
"if software is updated regularly" is yet another.
"if it carries through switching administrations" is unlikely.
If Civil servants are not trained properly it won't help anyone.

Nice business pitch, however no doubt your associated fees and costs will blow any NGO's
business model out of the window. (Foreign NGO obviously, as Bahamian NGO's actually have little funds and little planning possible as such)
Of course first responders do what they do free of charge. including the inrush of food water relief supples etc. Will you be helping them for free also?
Well done if so.
U.S. and other nations NGO's have well refined business models, as they are subject to a rating system of % of $1 direct to the cause vs. administration fees costs and salaries, even advertising and yes, professional audits and accounting.
Of course they also have a tax structure that "rewards" donating to recognized and registered charities of your choice.
We don't have that.
Our high costs of doing business have been noticed by more than a few Large NGO's operating in the Bahamas post Dorian.

And then there is self insurance.
Properly accrued it wins hands down over external insurance premiums and delayed payouts, damage assessors and reduced payouts due to desperation for a payout.
That whole industry needs serious regulation which unfortunately means higher premiums and lower % insured.
A downward spiral alongside the economic spiral.

I wish I were a fly on the wall every time a politician or Lackey/bag man asked or suggested
inflating the price or cost to include the inevitable kick backs.
With all the Anti foreign corrupt laws internationally, the FACTA, and the TIEA's signed i hope more and more sticky political fingers get caught in the fly trap.
