AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Power & Consumer Relief: URCA says 72,000 Bahamas Power and Light customers will get rebates after a settlement that returns $610,240.94 in regulatory fines tied to the 2018 Clifton Pier fire and 2019 New Providence outages, with credits appearing on this month’s bills. Political Pressure on Reliability: Golden Gates MP Pia Glover-Rolle has demanded BPL answers over prolonged outages, citing impacts on groceries, health and small businesses, as the dispute spills across party lines. Aviation Accountability: Aviation reps are challenging claims about the North Andros Independence Day crash response, arguing specialised aviation ambulances and fire capability are needed; a pilot also says public flight data points away from pilot error. Teacher Recruitment Transparency: The government faces calls to publish details of a Ghana deal to recruit 300 teachers, amid concerns from the Bahamas Union of Teachers and opposition about unresolved employment issues. Energy Investment: Shell has reached a final investment decision for a small-scale LNG regasification terminal at Clifton Pier, taking 40% in New Providence Gas Ltd to support lower-emissions, more reliable power on New Providence. Security & Enforcement: Police seized nearly $300,000 in suspected hydroponic marijuana at LPIA after finding two unattended suitcases from Toronto. Local Business Pulse: Bimini marina leaders say Independence weekend demand was very slow, with fewer boats than expected, while Nassau marinas also report sluggish activity.
