AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Digital Policy at Atlantis (WTPF-26): PM Philip Davis urged small island states to unite for fairer global technology and data deals, calling out a “sovereignty discount” and pushing a shared position on data, control, resilience, satellite and spectrum policy. Disaster-Ready Connectivity: Innovation Minister Sebas Bastian said telecom and satellite licensees should be required to restore affordable service after disasters for a set period, not treat Bahamians as optional customers. Digital Inclusion for Disabilities: An ITU panel called for 15% of universal service funds to go toward accessible devices and training so persons with disabilities can enter the digital workforce. Education Disruption Fallout: The Ministry of Education said school operations resumed after talks with the Bahamas Educators Managerial Union, while the union reported disappointment after unresolved issues. Business Resilience Training: The DRM Authority launched a Business Resilience Programme workshop for nearly 100 micro, small and medium enterprises to plan for hurricanes, outages, supply shocks and tech failures. Healthcare Leadership: The Public Hospitals Authority appointed Charles Sealy II as managing director effective Sept. 14, overseeing major public hospital operations including lab services. Aviation Expansion: Flyte received approvals to expand private charter operations from the U.S. into The Bahamas and Caribbean, aiming to boost demand and aircraft utilization. Energy Transition Planning: CARILEC’s Resilient/Renewable Energy Community conference will be held in Nassau Oct. 18–22 to advance grid reliability, renewables, storage and policy reform.
