Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you for the opportunity to speak on the Marine and Ports Services Amendment Act 2021.

Second question, Mr. Deputy Speaker. I noted in the Statement that we are ex pecting additional MRG payments in 2021, Minister. How many more payments after 2021 are there likely to be? Hon. W. Lawrence Scott: I wish I could say that we would have no payments at the end of 2021. But I think that it is safe to …

Minister, is there anything else we can do to avoid these MRG payments? Hon. W. Lawrence Scott: Contrary to popular belief, even if we were to cancel the agreement today we would still have MRG payments to make, but just to different entities. But what we can do, and what is b e-ing done (I should say), is that the …

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would sadly ask if the House could at this time send condolences to two families with recent passings. The first one is Althea Madre Lightbourne, who actually is the sister of a very good friend of mine, Marshall Minors. And I know her son, I am associated with her son, Jerome, …

Okay. Earlier, as I s aid, many of my colleagues made reference to graduations in Bermuda being very special, especially this year with our students having to (I will use the word) “suffer” under COVID -19 reg ulations and things like that. I thought it necessary to single out three of my students in my constituency, if you do not …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am going to be very, ver y brief. I think the Opposition have indicated support for this, the Bermuda Civil Aviation Authority Amendment Bill, because they are two common sense housekeeping amendments in the interests of efficiency. So, I certainly support and thank the Minister and his technical officers for bringing this forward. …

Good morning, all. Madam Acting Speaker, since the last time we met, two members of my constituency celebrated birthdays. And because I think it is better to give roses while people are still alive, I would ask that the House send congratulations to, in the first instance, Dorothy Lattimore of Whale View Lane, who turned 92 and is still in …
