“Investigations and penalties?” You guys must be joking! You expected that these elected officials would table and pass a bill which would make them more accountable for the public purse and be subjected to “investigations and penalties?” Your good humour will add years to your life.

This government has little to no integrity and so you can expect that no such reflexive accountability legislation will ever be tabled for them to have to dance to, so get it out of your head once and for all.

Amazing, but not surprising, that such legislation can appear and be rushed through whilst there is no strengthening of accountablity required of the Bermuda Government. Get the priorities right and protect Bermuda taxpayers first, and now, before shareholders of companies traded in Europe.

100% pure political spin. But unfortunately the masses don’t care.

This has nothing to do with the Bermuda govt improving on their own governance.

You would think with a name like “Bermuda Public Accountability Act 2011″ that it had something to do with the public’s funds and the accountability of Government…

But NO…. Maybe the name was to make us all think so….
