I am sure that Rev. Genevieve’s appointment is subject to the usual work permit requirements for all non-Bermudians.

“The Cost of Living [Essential Commodities] Regulations 2022 solidified the effort to smooth out the fluctuations in prices”

Price controls do not work to the benefit of a community. There are always adverse consequences. I guess that is why there is not one economist on the Commission. He or she might point out that simple fact.

Any representatives from the major markets there. Any representatives from the major retailers there? Any representatives from a major real estate company dealing with rentals there?

Nope. For the most part this is just another PLP committee with little direct knowledge of what they are supposed to be doing sitting around a table going yap,yap,yap.
