Dear Sir,

You report that the Minister of Public Works stated “... the situation has been made worse by the lack of diligence by certain landowners to do their part”.

Also “... that the highways section has been challenged by lack of manpower and equipment”. These are jobs that Bermudians can do so unemployment can be reduced.

Before challenging homeowners, the Government needs to get its own house in order.

The enclosed photograph was taken this morning by the show ring in the Botanical Gardens on Berry Hill Road.
