Caretaker gov’t and Bahamas donation

Dear Editor,

Does the caretaker government have the legal authority to make a donation to hurricane-hit Bahamas as it did on the recent telethon?

In a related matter I viewed the telethon for a while, admittedly not in its entirety.   I was expecting to see a cross-section of persons representative of different organizations – religious, social,  political,  etc. – appearing as guests on the panel.  After all it was a national effort.

Regrettably this did not happen up to the time I tuned out.  Can the organisers say differently?

Yours faithfully,

Shamshun Mohamed
