STATE Finance Minister Zhirvargo Laing has said the Government has not been officially informed by Sir Jack Hayward of his agreement to sell his stake in the Grand Bahama Port Authority.

[...]

Sir Jack -- who has been embroiled in a three-year legal battle with the estate of his late business partner, Edward St George, over claims that he owned 75 per cent of the GBPA/Port Group Ltd -- said he had signed the sales agreement and initialed all the pages on Friday.

[...]

Mr Ingraham recently revealed that the Government would not renew the work permit of GBPA Chairman Hannes Babak when it expires this year.

Mr Ingraham did not go into the reasons for the decision: "All I can tell you is that the Government has decided that Hannes Babak's work permit, who is the chairman of the Port, will not be renewed at the end of this month when it expires."
Observers speculate that Mr Ingraham's decision may be a reaction to Sir Jack's opposition to GBPA being sold to Hutchison Whampoa, an international corporation Mr Ingraham reportedly wants to buy the GBPA.
Question:

(1) Why does the govt. want the GBPA sold to Hutchison Whampoa -- and seems to block the sale to anyone else?
(2) Why have not the Bahamian courts figured out who owns the GBPA? C'mon it takes them THREE YEARS to figure out who the owner is?
(3) Given the "not so great" (I am being nice) job HW is doing with Our Lucaya, why would the govt. want them to take over more of GBI? what is in it for the govt.?
