AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Ebola Travel Advisory: The Bahamas Ministry of Health & Wellness warns travellers about Ebola-affected areas, urging avoidance of contact with sick people, contaminated items, and unnecessary healthcare visits, and recommends monitoring for 21 days after returning, watching for fever, severe headache, body aches, sore throat, vomiting/diarrhea, abdominal pain, and unexplained bleeding. PPP Accounting Questions: The Fiscal Responsibility Council says a $43.1m liability tied to public-private partnerships has “crystallised,” but the Government hasn’t explained how it will be recorded or why it was left off guarantees—raising concerns about transparency and taxpayer risk. Budget Pressure Ahead: The FRC warns the projected $291.4m fiscal surplus may force downward cuts to spending, citing weaker revenue collections, rising arrears, and bigger guarantees. Health Tech Trial: BTT Medical Institute launches a first-in-human safety trial of the Abreu BTT 700 Temperature Management System, aiming to raise body temperature into a controlled fever range for potential therapeutic use. Cannabis Platform Pilot: Bahamas Pharmaceutical Association president Dr Marvin Smith says the cannabis tracking platform will be pilot tested before year-end using the METRC system. Workplace Protections: Labour Minister Pia Glover-Rolle says revised employment and industrial relations amendments—plus expanded maternity, paternity, and mental health leave—are in drafting and hoped to reach Parliament before the end of the year. Local Wellness Funding: Baha Mar Resort Foundation announces $300,000 in community investments, including health and wellness support.
