Yes, second supplementary. Is the Government also considering, [since] they are giving 15 years for this particular project , those hotels that have already opened? Are they co nsidering extending concessions and the like to those who are already up and running who got concessions, but not at that length?

Thank you, thank you, Mr. Speaker. Considering the answer that the Premier gave, I am just curious. With the support of a guara ntee I was trying to understand, then, how are the local investors . . . are they secured by this guarantee? Or . . . ? Hon. E. David Burt: Mr. Speaker, I will refer to my …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am just curious. Did the Premier say that the local investor would be announced?

Yes, but, Mr. Speaker, that says the terms would be an nounced. Did not the Premier earlier . . . I thought he just said that he would announce the investors .

Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just wanted to say that I am glad to hear the news that we are moving forward with this particular piece of legislation to ensure that Southampton Pri ncess has the opportuni ty like the rest of the hotels that are already existing and those possibly in the future have opportunities where they can …

Well, I think it just continues to add to the complexity and the challenges that people are having. I accept the apology and I recognise that these things can happen. But this is not the first time that this has happened. I mean, we have just gone through the Budget Debate and we saw the complete debacle. And one of …

Thank you, very much, Mi nister. Understanding that under licence in the 2016 Act, a licence is being des cribed “as a valid licence granted by the Authority.” I am still trying to understand the explanation of licence transfer or assignment. With that assignment, what exactly . . . what other ground are we covering here when we say “or …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I believe what I would like to do . . . so much has already been said in the first debate. And many of these issues probably do not need to be rehashed considering the fact that this Bill has not changed in any way, shape or form. There are some highlights that I believe I …

As a matter of clarification, let’s just say that it was brought to the House. We will check the Hansard just to ensure what he did say. But the [decriminalisation] of marijuana was brought to this House in 2017 by the One Bermuda Alliance. This Bill, Mr. Speaker, is quite extensive. Quite frankly, a lot of work has gone into …

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just a question on the $200,000 that the Premier spoke of . The guarantee management. Typ ically, he said, this was for legal fees and the advisors and the like. Typically, that would come under expense. I am confused why this is under guarantee because this would most likely fall under professional services and not under …

Considering that the Premier said that this was listed in the Budget Book, is he sa ying that the specific $200,000- plus is itemised there, or is it clumped in with some other stuff, because . . . I would like for him to point out where that is actually in the book.

You said that it was budgeted and it fit under . . . that the computation of this $200,000 fit under a certain category outside of this guarantee management. Hon. E. David Burt: I am not entirely certain of the category he speaks about, Mr. Chairman. We are considering a supplementary —
