Statement by Prime Minister Dr. the Hon. Timothy Harris

On the Occasion of Father’s Day

Sunday, June 17^th, 2018

My Fellow Citizens and Residents,

Today, our Nation’s Fathers are being celebrated and honoured by children and families whose lives are blessed by their unfailing presence, protection, provision and positive example.

As a man who was raised by highly supportive parents – and who is now the proud Father of two young ladies – I understand that the consistent giving of discipline, time and love is essential to building strong, healthy parent-child relationships that can last through adulthood and adversity. It is also the key to raising children to become productive, happy and responsible adults.
