Questions to Ministers

Would the Prime Minister and Minister of Finance please say what new taxes will be announced in his budget presentation on Monday, and would he also say if he considers it fair to impose new taxes on poor Belizeans when times are already the hardest they have ever been?

Would the Prime Minister and Minister of Finance please say if he will fire his ex-wife’s law firm and allow the Solicitor-General’s office to do its job, since he acknowledged that the Government is broke?

Would the Minister of National Security please say just what the hell is going on in the streets, and if people should just stop looking to him for answers since he obviously does not have a clue on how to fight crime? 

Would the Minister of National Security care to comment on the situation down south, where six heavily armed police officers harassed a villager because he dared to disagree with UDP area representative Juan Coy? Would the Minister be willing to say if Coy has been granted special powers to order police to do his bidding?

Would the Minister of Agriculture confirm or deny reports that he and his son are part owners of Eco-Green, the xate harvesting company which was granted a lucrative contract by government? And would the Minister further confirm or deny reports that a company he owns is providing construction materials under the Venezuela grant project?
