HOLNESS ADMINISTRATION SCORECARD Hurricane Recovery, Inflation & The Governance Test Policy Plus

In this broadcast, we evaluate the performance of the Holness administration on the anniversary of its September 3rd mandate, examining how the government has managed unprecedented challenges—from Hurricane Melissa's devastation to global economic shocks and skyrocketing household costs. We analyze state delivery on the ground, assessing the effectiveness of emergency relief distributed through the Social Development Commission (SDC) and contrasting political promises against the everyday realities facing Jamaican families. Our panel examines what the public scorecard reveals about institutional capacity, disaster preparedness, and whether current governance policies are truly delivering accountability for the Jamaican people. ⚖️ POLICY PLUS LIVE | JAMAICA'S CIVIC, LEGAL & PUBLIC POLICY FORUM @policyplusnetwork Welcome to Policy Plus Live, an independent broadcast platform dedicated to dissecting Jamaican law, governance, public procurement, constitutional rights, and national policy developments.
