A horrific tragedy which occurred at Rock Gutter, located between Fancy and Owia, on the morning of January 12th changed it all. The convening of Parliament was, tentatively, postponed for one day; and then after further consultations with Cabinet colleagues, the Honourable Leader of the Opposition, His Excellency the Governor-General, and the Honourable Speaker, the postponement was extended to a period after the funeral for our loved ones, who died in that tragic accident. So, here we are today, January 28, 2015, at the commencement of our annual budgetary exercise, in accordance with our nation’s Constitution and statute law, having passed the Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure for 2015 in this Honourable House on December 22, 2014. 1 Mr. Speaker, on the early morning of January 12, 2015, twenty one (21) of our nationals boarded a mini-bus at Fancy.
