Where are the immediate Emergency Warnings and controls for the surrounding areas and island after looking at the known extremely toxic clouds of smoke?

At least keep indoors warnings, back to the mandated Covid mask controls. Available help for asthma and persons with breathing challenges.

After students leaving distant shores and homes to have contracts depending on to further their education and financial funds for shelter and the having the funds to provide food and necessities to be encountering financial delay is inhuman treatment to these students and peoples children.

To have this done to students, other peoples children intending to better their beloved Bahamaland is horrible.

The hidden forces for actions and inactions should be traced and those responsible for doing this to other peoples children and fellow Bahamians must be punished.

The continuous back and forth of the persistence of the back yard garages should first be studied.

These garages seem to exist in the densely populated areas with the car owners with the limited incomes. The garages seem to function as a dependable untold social glue keeping the peace to dense population and these businesses have the skills of negotiating the price to be charged, the frequencies of the payments and various prices of the replacement parts from the scrap metal recycling dealers. Many customers may grumble but are happy to at least have a vital car moving to make life easier. These garages in many ways are closely intertwined in the lives of the communities for ages.

Yes it would appear obvious these backyard garages without paperwork, office spaces and may have numbers of young workers learning the car repair trade instead of time spent on bad activities. The scope of these backyard garages extend beyond the sites of what one sees and the dynamics of keeping the communities at more peaceful levels should be examined.

On the matter of the unsightly appearances it would seem to have govt experts assist them with controls than to uproot these garages which would seem for ages to be a good social glue for the communities for many.

The Bishop ought to know you can operate an office out of a computer for zoom and cell phone.

Excellent idea to have the members of the Human Rights Committee to spend a week in the Fox Hill Prison to fully grasp and understand the naked reality the many imprisoned are confined.

The continued repeated results that whatever continues to exist is not working to rehabilitate the majority of inmates who upon release create more criminal deeds at enormous expenses to nation, victims of crime, more police, more courts etcetcetc and again go back to prison.

It is about time the the Committee really and truly spend a week's time in Fox Hill Prison to fully understand the situations they are dealing with to improve, and from stories of what goes on it is not like being sent to Boarding School confines abroad to study for your Ordinary and Advanced Levels of Education.

thank you, Mr.Delano Clarke for your excellent work in stepping forward to help fellow citizen in distress.

First, the Bahamas govt policy from around April 2016 to current time of some 9 to 10 years has been to instruct new employees to open their bank account at the Govt. majority owned bank and any issues on compliances and Defence Force employees would easily be undertaken. -----

Secondly, the very recent changes in the world and with the utmost tightening of the borders of the most powerful friend and neighbouring country the US, there is more determination to stop illegal human trafficking, criminals, drugs smuggling and to the extent of taking very proactive efforts to stop the illegal drug cartels or terrorists. -----

To anyone it would appear that the illegal activities and illegal lucrative activities would try to be taking alternative routes possibly through the Bahamas. The Bahamian Commodore looking at all measures he can muster to counter illegal matters and protect the Bahamian sovereign nation, its people and assist our friends and neighbours with this side of the borders.

Kudos to the Commodore as a leading security chief who has a very hard job in protecting our national waters and sovereign nation along with the assistance of the US Coast Guard from drug smugglers, human traffickers, illegal commercial fishing boaters raping our fishing resources destroying ecosystems, illegal activities and helping those needing assistance.

All efforts to assist our Commodore guarding the Bahamian sovereign nation should try all options to improve the duties to better the protection of Bahamian sovereign nation.

The Commodore as a leader in the security of the nation's security of its sovereign borders apprehending drug traffickers, apprehending human traffickers, apprehending illegally vessels poaching fish and dealing with increasing vessels etcetc and with the assistance of the helpful US Coast Guard and services, has a good point and kudos to him for expressing his views.-----

Some assurance should be taken by the Commodore is that there are laws and regulations have existed for years dealing with 'suspicious transactions' including money laundering etc. by all the commercial Banks and financial institutions including the local banks, Panama Banks, Trinidadian, Middle east bank, the majority Bah govt bank etcetc and all banks registered to do business present or in the past.-----

Further assurances should be as in recent Tribune article last week Thursday February 20, 2025 where it was revealed that the govt 'policy' of directing all new employees since April, 2016 to open up accounts at the govt majority owned Bank and under conditions should be easy to have been already examined of any govt employee going back some 9-10 years employment when the govt 'policy' started. All infractions would have already been 'red flagged' and Compliance officials regulators resolved. -----

Kudos to the Commodore and rest assured there are Bahamian existing laws, rules and regulations governing 'suspicious transactions.'

In a country where the second largest sector is based on banking and host of other associated financial business, the required disclosing of financial dealings is unlikely to reveal any wrong doings as persons unlikely to leave a track record including the asue draw in bank account which already examines by law suspicious transactions -----

The population should at the first things required is investigations of the alleged financial irregularities on the excessive massive overruns on contracts and/or agencies of govt.-----. Some of investigations start on financial institutions, --- on works of the Baseball Sports still not opened?--- Whatever happened to the Gladstone water treatment plant with the costs at around double when started?--- Whatever happened to the first post office plan on Gladstone rd. bought building that must at first be examined to be post office? .--- whatever happened to the audit of tens of millions in the Road Traffic area years ago? --- , Massive failure and bancruptcy of Hotel involving Bahamians birthrights in lands and concessions involving billion plus dollars and somehow manage to get correction in billions of dollars in courts of another country, --- how can population be aware of NIB buildings in Goodmans Bay not turning over money but yet is asked of population to fund NIB more money. -----

Unfair to have any govt employed person to have finances investigated when their big boss the various govts still need to also investigate itself an host of financial matters of hundreds of millions of dollars.
