Individuals will pay P50, while the youth will pay P25.

Ramaribana also said they have decided that, primary schools which have just been introduced into BBF will not pay anything. She said the decision would be reviewed at their next AGM. She said they have also decided to keep database of their membership in order to have information readily available.
