Point of order, Mr. Speaker. POINT OF ORDER [Misleading]

The Honourable Premier is misleading the House. The Auditor General has in fact indicated that there are a number of outstanding audited statements including some that go back 10 years, including the seized assets fund. Thank you. Hon. E. David Burt: Mr. Speaker, so we are clear, the Honourable Member who asked the question asked about audited statements for the …

Thank you, thank you. I am glad to see the Premier says he has not heard from me. He might have forgotten my point of order when I said he was misleading the House.

Honourable Minister, thank you. In your Statement today you identified that increased airlift to our Island is (quote) “critical.” And we agree. You identified available seats in 2018 as being 611,000. You identified that last year, 2023, we had 433,000. That is a difference of 145,000. So there were 145,000 fewer seats last year versus 2018. What new routes and/or …

Yes, thank you, supplementary. In relation to filling that 145,000 gap, you said on page 7 of your Statement that you had discussions with British Airways. Is there any scope for expansion in the number of days that they fly or the routes that they fly or the seats on those planes?

Second supplementary. I wish you well in the discussions. And my second supplementary is, in relation to the British Airways flights as currently exist, does the Honourable Minister have any indication as to whether or not those flights might return so they dock at the gate of the airport as opposed to being bussed in on a regular basis?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have been asked to repeat the question. The question is, During your discussions with British Airways, is there any indication as to whether or not we might see a return to where the British Airways flight from Bermuda to Heathrow docks at an arm into the airport rather than docking and taking the buses? Thank …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, on a sad note I would like to offer condolences to the Gray family on the loss of Ms. Gillian Gray in her 86 th year. Ms. Gray will be known by some as the wife of Allan Gray, who of course was the person who brought —and I am being asked by the …

And I thank the Honourable Junior Minister for his presentation to the House on this Bill. Let me start by declaring an interest. I am a member of the law firm that has other lawyers who have advised on this together, doubtless with many other lawyers in Bermuda. So, I declare that interest. I have had no personal involvement, but …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As before, I can be relatively brief. This is a Bill which in principle is about clean air. But as we can see from the media reports this morning, is also about hot water. The clean air part is easy. We have got a Clean Air Act 1991 which is being subject to the Clean Air …

And I understand that MP De Silva is offering some learned information on when regulations are supposed to come in relation to legislation. No doubt he can illuminate us all when he takes to his feet later on. The problem for legislators, Mr. Speaker, is how can we vote on something when we do not have a full picture? And …

Again, I am now getting further chipping- in from MP De Silva, and again no doubt he will share his learning on this matter when he gets up to speak. So, there are three concerns (or at least distilling this article, which is a very lengthy article, down to three fundamental concerns) that the Minister may wish to address or …
