EDITOR, The Tribune.
On a certain morning talk show a Mr Forbes from property valuations confirmed that today, ongoing, Ministry of Finance is re-evaluating all properties that fall under Real Property Tax.
The brilliance of whoever decided this was correct practice is beyond any form of rational thinking seeing there is at least $400m owed to Real Property Tax.
They are impotent – unable or not even trying to collect the $400m is amazing as surely if with re-assessments valuations will increase it is right to presume the Assessment Statements for 2017 will increase...
Real Property Treasurer of the Bahamas – Minister of State Finance and Minister of Finance are so impotent and living in a make believe world of disillusion.
Shame and collect - even if it means leaking the persons who owe – shame and collect – this has to happen.
Government you have to cancel your policy of enhancement of those who owe bills. It is law to pay your bill, Mr Prime Minister!

I believe that the constitution says that only non PLP's are required to pay their property taxes! I stand to be corrected, although a freedom of information act may prove that I am, in fact, correct.
