Point of order, Mr. Speaker. That is not what I said at all. Hon. Zane J. S. De Silva: I actually agree with you. I am giving you a compliment actually. But if you want to correct me, go ahead.

The Premier, the Honour able Member, certainly is misleading the public and the House. No consultation from a consultant . . . Imput ing improper motives. We are simply questioning things. There are no ulterior motives. We could say [som ething] similar [abou t] him.

Yes, Mr. Speaker. 1674 15 July 2022 Official Hansard Report B ermuda House of Assembly Probably more of a qualification . . . I am tr ying to gain a better understanding here.

Yes, that is correct. I should not have said teachers. But I was just trying to go through the list that had been put out earlier. I did name some of those—C ustoms workers, bus drivers and healthcare workers and the likes. Thank you for the clarification, Education Minister. Again, as I said, some of the argument really is that …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think I already qualified. I am talking about what this emergency measure is going to put into place with bus drivers and the likes —those people who are affected by this measure—that they have to wear a mask. So, I am not sure what the Honourable Member is getting to. It does not make any …

I did make it clear earlier when I mentioned it, and I was corrected that teachers do not fall under that. So, I said, “these same people are going to go back to work.” Those were my exact words: “these same people are going to go back to work .” And so, that is where the challenge is going to …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Let me first start off by thanking the Tourism Minister for bringing this to the table. Anything that is going to enhance or encourage our tourism product here in Bermuda is certainly vital and important. And some of these things have already been said in the past about the tourism industry. Being familiar with Cambridge Beaches, …

Yes, thank you, Mr . Spea ker. And good morning to all colleagues and to Berm uda. I am not sure what page number this is . . . it is the page before the ending of the Statement, at the very bottom of the page where the Premier talks about gasoline prices. Hon. E. David Burt: Page 5.

Page 5. I just want to point him to that area. Mr. Speaker, the question I have is, down at the bottom of the page he says “This price freeze of gasoline saves $23 on the average- sized car tank.” I am trying to understand . . . okay, it is a bit opaque. It is not completely transparent. Is …

I should declare my interest, yes, yes. Hon. E. David Burt: No problem. That was not a thing, I am just saying. So, Mr. Speaker, when we were calculating the savings that were due to members of the public, I certainly did reach out to, funny enough, one of the Honourable Member’s former colleagues who used to serve in this …

I guess the Premier was all over the place there. I just want to make sure that the public understands exactly what they are getting back in savings on this tank. He spoke in terms of litres. And, as you know, Bermudians understand the lingo is in gallons. So I would appreciate it, as he goes forward, if he can …
