Letter: Back our demand for accountable government


Dear Sir, Recently, we marched on Parliament for the chance to speak out about democracy and to demand a change in the way that we are governed.

Now we must speak out again and strongly implore that the Bermudian public seize this opportunity to do the same. Now is your chance to speak up about our right to information.

The PLP website is asking citizens to review the draft legislation for Public Access to Information (PATI) and send your comments to [email protected].

The deadline is November 30, 2009 less than one week away.

You can find the PLP webpage by following this link: http://www.plp.bm/node/2190 .

Once on the page, click on the words 'released a draft bill' and follow the link.

Many people ask what they can do to help Bermuda and the answer is to make PATI legislation retroactive.

We are urging everyone to send their opinion to either [email protected] or hand deliver your submission to The Cabinet Office, ATTN: PATI.

Our Government is asking to hear your voice by November 30, 2009.

Please make your voice heard.

The Bermudians

Janice Battersbee, Erica Rance-Cairah, Anne Hyde, Pat Ferguson, Marti Chiappa, Gilbert Pitcher

The Bermudians is a not-for-profit, non-partisan association whose two main purposes are to advocate for good governance and to mobilize the people of Bermuda to act with unity and respect toward one another.
