There is no ‘self insured’ accepted under any contract which gives credence to the fact there was no contract.

Without insurance any government would be automatically on the hook for any sloppy work (as looks to be the case here) and/or damage
.
Who would have to pay those workers injured on such a work site- the government again.
What a farce!

The leading cause of death in adolescent girls is pregnancy.
Girls aged 15-19 are twice as likely to die and those under 15 are 5X more likely to die

The onset of menstruation does not mean their bodies have matured for the rigors of pregnancy and birth, in fact pregnancy directly impairs a child’s growth to maturity.
This is why the complication and mortality rate is so high for the adolescent and her infant.

“Alleged rape”? How does Munroe think this 11 year old child got pregnant??
By enticing her Mother’s boyfriend into her bed??
And why isn’t this already being investigated?

And why should an eleven year child be forced to give birth?
And why does the Mother still have custody of her minor child without establishing the whereabouts of her boyfriend the “alleged” rapist?

This is why no act or law mandating action for violent offenders against women and children and/ or their protective care will ever be funded by this gov’t.

And perhaps honestly interested in working for Bahamians and not their own criminal enterprise??

Your point matters why??
Cuzzin Clarence’s bizness is that of a con man, he made $540 that day by false enterprise and gave the Bahamas another black eye.

These guys have just months ago shown how they handle work permits in repeat offenders in the “construction zone”.
And only the savvy get “automatic” work permits, ie. after they’ve greased all the right palms.

As for this government’s supposedly aggressive legislation serving Bahamians?
Show us where that’s funded and doing just that.
Case in point: programs for pre-school age children, when and with what money?
While they’re at it how about adequate funding and programs for K-13???

This is your job Davis,aren't you the PM ie. your service is to ensure good goverance to Bahamians?
Stop ducking your responsibilities!

Ms Bostwick-Dean, Ms Wilson et al are right to push for these basic human needs, the problem is the "they" reference constantly used by said Minister and his fellows, "They were very concerned about the emphasis in the previous draft bill," and "they want".
If "we're all on the same page" why not say so?

"We're very concerned about protective care for women on an island where violence against women (and girls) is endemic and epidemic.
We know that all the laws and provisions we enact are toothless unless we use their power as stated- to stop violence against women and their children.
And we shall do so"

That is the trouble with laws in the Bahamas, if no one uses their power to safeguard it's citizens...??

So let's get this straight: Randy is mad because BPL they didn't "establish an effective remediation plan" and yet he's filed suit against them for digging diesel recovery trenches and installing wells to monitor any spillage on his property because they didn't ask him first??

And he wants indeminfication from any action against him due to said spillage despite the fact that his knowledge of the environmental concerns ( he says he called DEPP) did not move him to:
a) Warn his workers and customers;
b) start remediation efforts himself to clean up and/or protect his land,not to mention said workers/customers and sue for costs etc;
c) bother to report the constant spillage he claims, ie. he waited 3 years to report a spill from 2019, and 7 months to report a spill from Jan 2022.
Further all he did was call, twice.

He is reponsible for the stewardship of his land, and he must ensure it is secure ie.a safe environment for his customers and workers.
He did not, and that is actionable.
