NASSAU, BAHAMAS Our Islands, Our Future (OIOF), a coalition of business owners, environmental groups and individuals who oppose oil drilling in Bahamian waters, announced yesterday it will host a live webinar on the future oil drilling in The Bahamas on Wednesday, May 12, 2021.
The event aims to take a closer look at the array of natural resources and industries that would be adversely impacted by an oil spill in our waters.
The webinar is open to the public and will facilitate the exchange of opinions and expertise.
The webinar will include a mix of presenters who will provide insight into the science of oil drilling as well as offer case studies on previous oil spills. Discussions will focus on whether The Bahamas has the know-how and resources to remediate such a disaster or even manage an oil-producing industry.
“Increased taxes without first implementing significant public sector reform will only further hamper the country”
NASSAU, BAHAMAS Any comprehensive tax review or reform should not come before significant public sector reform, a governance reformer warned yesterday.
Robert Myers, the Organization for Responsible Governance’s (ORG) principal, told
Eyewitness News: “ORG agrees that while comprehensive tax review and reform may be necessary at some point in the future, ORG strongly disagrees that any such review or reform should come ahead of significant public/civil sector reform.
“Successive governments have ignored the core and fundamental need for public/civil sector reform, to the point of the nation’s implosion, and continue to do so at the expense of the public and their ongoing despair and demise.”
NASSAU, BAHAMAS The Bahamas has dropped one spot to being ranked at 30 out of 180 countries on Transparency International’s 2020 Corruption Perception Index (CPI).
The Bahamas scored 63 points out of 100 on the index. Barbados, which ranked at 29, scored 64. New Zealand and Denmark both ranked number one, each with a score of 88.
The report states that a country or territory’s score indicates the perceived level of public sector corruption on a scale from zero to 100. Zero means the country is perceived as highly corrupt and 100 means the country is perceived as very clean.
The Corruption Perception Index ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption, according to experts and business people.
