Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Just curious as to whether or not the Gover nment is now looking at any other way, to energy management systems? The Speaker: Minister. Hon. Wayne L.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think I would like to just first start off by [agreeing with] the sentiments given earlier by other Members of Parliament. Thank you to all of the emergency service workers.

Yes. It is important that we get back to the co ncerns that Bermudians have. And those concerns in my opinion are not being addressed in any substantive way in this Throne Speech. And those concerns are the cost of living and the cost of doing business. Now, I give credit to the Minister Jason Ha yward. He laid out …

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, I think I have done enough in the past to point out, many of the overages. I have pointed out one that quite frankl y fell under former Premier Alex Scott (he brought the name up), where we had overages.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Well, I would encourage the Honourable Member if he thinks that I don’t know that, and that I have never felt that before, then he is mistaken. I feel the same pain as a Black man as he has felt. So, if he wants t o talk about the issues of this country that Black people …

Thank you very much. And thank you, Premier, for your review. There is not much really to say to this here. It is sensical. It makes sense in what it is that the Go vernment is attempting to do here.

I do appreciate the sent iments of the last two Members in their personal explanations, and I also would like to offer my apologies to the Deputy Speaker. It was unfortunate that it took place the way that it did, of his not understanding or knowing the details —

Yes. Well, I hope that there will be opportunity for me, Mr. Speaker, to continue to flesh this out as I give my apologies; because it is still concerning to me that I was removed from the House. But I do apologise.

When talking about the school sites, Minister, I was just curious. You know, we are talking about plans for the teachers and st udents and the like.
