On Thursday you heard from the Honourable Minister of Health on a further case of COVID-19 within the Territory. We are deeply sorry to have to confirm that the patient has since died, despite the best efforts of our medical professionals.
I have been informed by the Unified Command Team of the Health Emergency Operations Centre that an additional case of Covid-19 has been identified, swabbed and locally tested at the Dr. D. Orlando Smith Hospital.

Mr. Speaker, I rise to provide this Honourable house with an update regarding the work of my ministry during this twenty-four hour curfew period as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Notwithstanding the seriousness of the threat, there are some critical functions that must be carried out; however, the officers carrying out these functions are doing so with all due care for their health as well as that of their fellow officers.
