NASSAU, Bahamas, CMC - Prime Minister Perry Christie has praised the work of the Constitutional Commission as he accepted its report on the review of the Bahamas Constitution.
“We are so happy to see the emphasis placed by this Commission on consultation with people in our islands, because to too great an extent, because of the capital being here and the majority of people being here and this being the centre of Government, we tend to be Nassau centric.
“So the fact that you have gone out there, you have sensed what they want to see and want to hear, I think is very important, but we must recognise that it is a work in progress,” he said, adding “we have to pay a lot of attention to ensure that our democracy is understood and felt by people in our islands”.
