The Ministry of Home Affairs wishes to share the following information, which mirrors that provided to the Association as recently as yesterday. Today, the Association has decided to spread significantly misleading information despite these facts.

“As outlined in the government’s platform of 2017, members of the public will recall several commitments designed to enhance our citizens’ lives,” said Minister of Public Works, Lt. Col. the Hon. David Burch,OBE (Mil), ED, JP, MP, as the Ministry launches a public consultation on improving Bermuda’s water sector.

The Attorney-General and Minister of Legal Affairs and Constitutional Reform, the Hon. Kathy Lynn Simmons, JP, MP, is pleased to notify the public that the Department for National Drug Control (DNDC) will be conducting a survey to obtain information on adult drug-use in Bermuda. The survey data will be used to monitor the nature and magnitude of the use and abuse of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs in our community; and will assess public opinion on an array of drug-related issues.

Mr. Speaker and Honourable Members,

I rise today to announce that the Ministry of Health will be commencing the STEPS to a Well Bermuda Survey in October 2019.

The survey is conducted in collaboration with the Pan American Health Organization utilizing the standardized Pan-American Health Organization / World Health Organization’s STEPwise approach to chronic disease risk factor surveillance.

Good afternoon.

I’m joined today by the General Manager of the Bermuda Housing Corporation, Major Barrett Dill.

The Mission Statement of the Bermuda Housing Corporation is:
“To provide accessibility to adequate, affordable housing and promote independent living to enhance the quality of life in Bermuda.”

The Department of Planning reminds the public that its survey on the use of alternative construction materials and techniques in Bermuda is still open. As these methods become more common, the Department is seeking community feedback to help assess their long-term impact on the island’s visual character and to guide future policy decisions.

Below are some Frequently Asked Questions about the STEPS to a Well Bermuda Survey:

This survey will take approximately five (5) minutes to complete. Public Survey start date – Monday March 19, 2018 and ends – Wednesday March 28, 2018.
