Concern for citizens aged 65 plus!
MY name is George L. Munroe and I am 77 years old. I retired as CEO of the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
My concerns are as follows:
1. The annual pension, whenever announced, is never ever retroactive to January 1. How is it, therefore, annual? Year 2015 will be scandalous!
2. The annual subsidies for GPL and GWI are given only to those with their own meters. Of the 42,000 or so seniors, how many receive this benefit, while paying each month as tenants or family residents?
3. The Low Vision (Eye) Clinic subsidy of Gy$8,000 has long been suspended; when will it be restored for our seniors who previously paid Gy$2,000 for an eye test and a complete pair of spectacles?
