Mr. Speaker,

This morning I rise before this Honourable House to table the Annual Report of the Bermuda College for the year 2021-2022 as required under Section 8 (2) of the Bermuda College Act 1974.

Mr. Speaker,

Good Morning Mr Speaker. Later today in this Honourable House, I will introduce the Morgan’s Point Company Act 2022 for its first reading.

Mr Speaker, the history of the Morgan’s Point site is well known. Honourable Members will recall that a previously little-known expanse of privately owned land in Warwick called Southlands became a rallying point for local conservation when three Bermudians purchased it and outlined plans to transform that site into a hotel.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to table for the information of this Honourable House the report entitled “Assessment of Self- governance Sufficiency in conformity with internationally-recognised standards”. This report, authored by Dr. Carlyle G. Corbin, on behalf of the Government of Bermuda, represents a marked advancement for the project of constitutional reform for Bermuda. Dr. Corbin’s distinguished qualifications are well established and already on record.
