Financial help may soon be available to poor Bajan mothers who have to raise children without the help of delinquent fathers.

Stuart made the disclosure during a town hall meeting in Washington DC, on Sunday, attended by at least 150 Bajans at the Church of the Holy Comforter, an Episcopal/Anglican parish.
He didn’t provide specific details but indicated the payments would be small but fathers would ultimately have to repay the Government once they were back on their financial feet.
