As part of The Royal Gazette's A Right To Know: Giving People Power campaign, we are calling for answers to questions which we believe are in the public's interest.

These are some of the questions we have put to Government or other publicly funded bodies but received no response:

l Have Police identified the person who sent the bullet received by Premier Ewart Brown which sparked a high-profile Government and Police press conference just days before the General Election? Has either political party been implicated in the mailing of the bullet?

Is the investigation still considered active and, if so, how is it going? Public Safety Minister David Burch, who called the press conference, deferred comment to Police. Police have declined numerous requests for information other than to say the investigation is ongoing.

• How many crackhouses are there in Bermuda? How many have been demolished or cleaned up? Is any legislation in the pipeline to make it easier to close them down? Last April, we were told Ministers were hoping to use existing legislation to seize control of dilapidated housing or force landlords to fix up their properties; and that 100 derelict homes had been identified — but the list could extend to 200. Since then no response has been given to any requests for an update.

• How much did Government's legal wrangle with Pro-Active over the new Berkeley Institute cost taxpayers? Government told this newspaper it was prevented from disclosing the figure by a confidentiality clause in the arbitration proceedings.

• Why does an administrative assistant at the National Training Board who was suspended remain on full pay more than a year after an inquiry into financial irregularities was launched? The Ministry of Labour has failed to respond to repeated questions about this since the start of 2007.

• How many tourists have come to Bermuda for faith-based tourism events in 2007-08? How many events have there been? What was Weekend Fit For A King (which Andre Curtis claims took place last September as part of faith-based tourism)? No response despite repeated requests to Department of Tourism, the Premier's Press Secretary and Mr. Curtis.

• How many public school students entered senior year one in 2003, so we can work out an accurate graduation rate for 2007? We were told by the Ministry of Education that the information was not available.

• How many low-cost units were eventually built at Texas Road, St. David's, for Bermuda Housing Corporation? Who built them? What was the total amount paid out for the building of the Southside homes? We were told Housing Minister David Burch would not be commenting.

Reports on issues affecting the public we have asked to see but never been given include:

• Johns Hopkins Medicine International review of healthcare in Bermuda, which Health Minister Michael Scott has said in private notes needs to be written for the public to avoid embarrassing Government.

• S. Harris & Co.'s report on mould at CedarBridge Academy and other public schools.

• Annual reports for BHC for 2003 and 2004, which a Government spokeswoman said were tabled in the House of Assembly.

• A.L. Lab Group Canada's report into the safety of land at Kindley Air Force Base, where numerous barrels of Agent Orange were allegedly dumped and burned during the 1960s.
