  1. That’s not all the BWA is leaking. What are its receivables to date? What percentage of its receivables should be booked as bad debt? What is it’s annual loss over the last 10 years? What was its lost for 2025 and so far for 2026?

    The answer is don’t know as they have not presented audited financials for a while. Nothing to see here let’s talk about how great Cropover was instead.


  2. @John A

    How many special audits have been produced by the Auditor General?

    Do you recall the hullabaloo when water meters that weren’t’ fit for purpose’ were procured by the brother of former Speaker Richard Byer since departed this mortal coil?

    Only bout hey.


  3. @Hants

    This looks like a household/domestic solution?


  4. Quatar gets approximately 97% of its drinking water through desalination.


  5. NOT ONLY QATAR, SEVERAL OTHER GULF COUNTRIES WHO ARE MAJOR IN THE OIL PRODUCING SUCH AS KUWAIT ETC DUE TO DESERT CONDITIONS DO THE SAME DESALINATION FOR MILLIONS OF CITIZENS.

    COÙLD DO THE SAME WITH THE 2X3 ISLAND WHO HAS A TINY POPULATION IN COMPARISON.

    …Do we export significant amounts of oil on the world markets for $US currency???
    LOL – find out the COST of desalination first boss.

    We can barely afford the cost of extracting and distributing the FREE PURE POTABLE water with which we are blessed…
    The much vaunted plant at Spring Gardens essentially ‘desalinates’ and pumps SLIGHTLY brackish SPRING water that is almost potable…

    Champagne dreams on mauby budgets.
