Key Developments • Lease and Office Space Scale-Back: Following public outcry and protests on Duke Street in downtown Kingston, the government announced it is revising and downsizing its proposed lease of the Digicel headquarters (initially slated at roughly J$115.2 million annually) for NaRRA's headquarters. Final lease details have not yet been formally finalized. • CEO Salary Controversy: Information Minister Dr. Dana Morris Dixon confirmed that NaRRA Chief Executive Officer Ambassador Antony Anderson receives a basic salary of J$40 million per year, alongside a motor vehicle and a performance-based 25% gratuity, which has drawn heavy criticism from opposition figures and street protesters. • Project Announcements and Oversight: The government defended NaRRA's mandate—established following Hurricane Melissa—highlighting a newly approved US$56 million upgrade project for the Palisadoes Peninsula. Officials also noted that a post-disaster oversight framework (Jamrock / Jamaica Reconstruction and Resilience Oversight Committee) will track and publicly publish agreed-upon project timelines. • Opposition Pushback: Opposition Leader Mark Golding and other critics continue to argue that NaRRA’s legislative framework lacks essential governance safeguards and that the agency should have been structured as a traditional statutory board rather than operating under centralized executive controls #kardomike #onejeffreytavares #mekwitalknow #naara #JMDA #ministryofhealthandwellness #drchristophertufton #dralfreddawes #drjubileebrownservice #jmda #senatorlamberbrown #uawu #uwi #NNN #PeoplesAgenda #AYearInGovernance #tvjnews #LandForThePeople #CrownLandBill #comereasonwithrattigan #HappyBirthdayPNP #PNP88 #WePutPeopleFirst #88YearsStrong #PNP88 #PNPJamaica #2DaysToGo #PeopleFirst #Negril #NaRRA #guyana #mohamedlrfaanali #presidentofguyana #SuperiorParts #MinisterofHealth #DrChristopherTufton #STANNHOSPITAL #DrHoraceChang #DrKevinBlake #JCF #Police #JDC #CoopersPen #Trelawny #Jamaica #LandOwnership #LandRights #AdversePossession #JamaicanLaw #InformalSettlements #PropertyRights #JamaicaLand #jamaicanewstoday #tvjnews #BeacheAccess #jamaicanparliament #jamaicanewstoday #tvjnews #BeacheAccess #negril #EdmundBartlett #jamaicaparliament #parliamentjamaica #jointsitting #jamaica #letyourvoicebeheard #citizenparticipation #knowyourparliament #thisisyourparliament #statevisit #pbcjamaica #jamaicadiaspora #StThomas #LandClaims #PBCJNews #michellecharles #pearnelcharles #andrewholness #markgolding #JLP #JamaicaPolitics #JamaicaNews #ishowspeedclips #redcross 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
