Because of Premier McKeeva Bush’s planned Mary Miller Hall meeting tonight (Monday 6) at 7:30pm, the rally against the proposal to introduce direct taxation on foreign workers’ earnings by Independent MLA Ezzard Miller, the opposition party and the Facebook group has been postponed.

“The postponement is as a result of developments over the weekend and the government’s apparent agreement to withdraw the payroll tax proposal and to hold a public meeting on Monday 6^th August to announce alternative revenue measures,” the opposition said in a short statement.  “Once details of the Government’s new plans are known, the PPM and MLA Ezzard Miller will determine whether to reschedule the planned meeting.”

***** UPDATE  MEETING POSTPONED UNTIL WEDNESDAY (8)
