Hon Fahie wants answers on Hon Walwyn’s $1M wall
His critics have said it was a waste of money while there is no toilet papers in schools, no money for education, festivals or the college.
While the questions were taken off the Order Paper before, today March 9, 2017 the House of Assembly will meet and the Leader of the Opposition and Member for the First District Hon Andrew A. Fahie is to ask the Minister for Education and Culture to inform the House of the budgeted amount for the total perimeter wall project at the Elmore Stoutt High School (ESHS) from 2014 to date, inclusive of all costs? and, further;
i) the total amount expended on the perimeter wall upgrade project to date inclusive of all soft and hard costs?
ii) state each Head and Subhead for which the project was charged, and the amount charged to each, to date? and
iii) state the budgeted cost to complete the upgrade project?
In addition Hon Fahie wants to know with regards to the total ESHS wall project:
i) the number of petty contracts issued for the upgrade project?
ii) the number of Purchase Orders issued for the upgrade project?
iii) the number of work orders for the upgrade project?
iv) the process used to select those that received contracts and those that received either purchase orders and/or work orders and/or otherwise, for the upgrade project?
If the question is not again deferred by the Speaker and Government, Hon Fahie will ask Mr Walwyn to provide a detailed listing of all petty contracts and purchase orders, work orders or otherwise, issued inclusive of names, amounts contracted, date issued, amounts paid and description of works or services?
Other front bench Ministers will also see questions from Hon Julian Fraser RA (R3), in particular the Premier and Leader of Government Business on the airport runway expansion.
Several bills will also be up for debate---Financial Services Commission (Amendment) Act, 2016; International Tax Authority Act, 2016; Child Maintenance and Access Act, 2016; Maintenance Orders (Facilities for Enforcement) Act, 2016; Magistrate’s Code of Procedure (Amendment) Act, 2016; and Validation (Merchant Shipping Adoption of United Kingdom Enactments) (Order 2005) Act, 2016.
The House sitting will be carried live on CBN Channel 51 at 10:00 AM.

Electricity, [e.g. reliability, affordability]
Education, [e.g. (public) schools]
Emergency services, (e.g. Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, etc...)
Health care, [ e.g. elderly care, hospitals]
Are we in a failed state and the answer for some folks would be yes, while others would say we are very near it.
Lawmakers can take a victory lap, high five each other and add a rousing back slap for a job well done!
This is the true legacy of the lawmakers!
Any one want to comment on this..?
