Nassau, Bahamas - Remarks by Fred Mitchell at the Majority Rule Day Exhibition opening, College of The Bahamas on 10th January 2013: The Prime Minister has asked me to stand in for him this evening.  Due to the exigencies of his schedule, he is unable to make it.  He sends his best wishes.  You know of his commitment to Majority Rule Day.

He has said that it is to become a public holiday.   Last evening, I was honoured to be amongst the Members of Parliament at a service to mark Majority Rule Day hosted by Rev. C.B. Moss and the Bain Town Community Association.  I gather that this exhibition is also a collaboration with that Association.
