Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I just wanted to add to the list of questions that the Honourable Minister will probably have to respond to because I do not think my Honourable Shadow could cover everything in his brief ha ving forgotten some of it, anyway. But if I refer to Head 35, page B -203, I …

I will start again. Head 35, page B -203, revenue source 8679, and if I am antic ipating the response that he is going to probably give me, I am then querying as to why 8681 and 8683 are probably low as well. So I just wanted some explan ation on that. As I said, it is a simple matter …

Thank you very much, Mad am Chairman. I will not take up too much time because I want to give the Minister enough time to answer the questions that my colleagues have. But there are few things, a couple of questions, that I do have as well. Firstly, let me also compliment the staff of the Workforce Development section. Many …

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I also went through the five - hour brief that the Minister gave. I did not have the benefit of having it in front of me though. But at the same time there are some questions that I have. I hope I did not miss them. Head 71, 81000, there was a decrease that …

Mr. Chairman, the Minister mentioned about the transfer of the Lorraine Rest Home and I understand why the cost changed, but I would like to ask the question, why was the change made from one ministry or department to the other? And what was the benefit likely to achieve? On line item 81020 I have a series of questions, Mr. …

This is one question I really want answered tonight, if you can. Is the maintenance and equipment of playgrounds. I have a vested interest in that one, probably, because it is right next door to my house. Is that under your Ministry? And is there a maintenance schedule for the playgrounds in terms of maintaining them and the equipment?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And good evening everyone. Mr. Speaker, it is really hard to follow such eloquent Government -in-waiting speakers because they have already said most of the things that I have in my notes, but I will still persevere. Before I start, please allow me to make one correction. The Honourable Member from constituency 6, said that the …

Mr. Speaker, let me start with a quote. Politics is like football; if you see daylight, go through the hole. John F. Kennedy. Mr. Speaker, I believe the One Bermuda Alliance has misunderstood that quote. The light that they are seeing, is that train coming down the track at them. It is not going to be long now, guys. You …

Honourable Minister . . . such a friend of mine, Mr. Speaker, that I lost my train [of thought] that time. I am also sort of curious that the Honourable Economic Minister, from constituency 22, seems to be taking over the conductorship of the OBA choir in Bermuda House of Assembly singing, Blame the former Government. He says that every …

Change the words or som ething, I do not know. But you cannot keep blaming us for everything. And then what really amazes me is that I also get the Honourable Minister from constituency 23, I wanted to say, Well, let’s sing Kumbaya together. I mean, you cannot flog us one minute and then want us to sing Kumbaya. So, …

At least someone got that. Let me also say that an earlier , in fact, I think one of the newest Ministers, from constituency 2, I believe she is from, said that, Oh, eat a chocolate a day. That is when we were talking about the amount of money that people are going to be able to save in this …

Mr. Speaker, first of all let me say that I am not worried that the Independent Member got to speak before me, because I do understand that seniority has its privilege. So I am happy that you have actually just recognised me. H ow is that ? Mr. Speaker, the Learned and Honourable Attorney General started off his comments by …

Well, exactly so . But I am just surprised that that was one of his opening bowls that he used to just want to shut down the discussion on the matter. But what I think is really going to run through this country is that all of a sudden the Government seems to have found money to do something like …

Mr. Speaker, it is kind of diff icult for me to be the rookie in the House and sit and be quiet and not say anything, but I do want to get my two cents in for what it is worth. Let me preamble my remarks by saying, and I have heard it several times tonight, you start wrong you …
