Statement from His Excellency the Governor, Mr John Rankin CMG

“I welcome yesterday’s statement by the Commissioner of Police sharing the Policing Plan for the upcoming sessions of the House of Assembly.  

In accordance with Bermuda’s democratic traditions it is important both that any protests are peaceful and conducted lawfully, and that the House of Assembly is able to meet and carry out its business.  

I trust that any differences of view in Bermuda can continue to be discussed and settled in a calm fashion in the interests of all of its citizens.”
