Bishop Urges GOJ To Hold Off on Naming 15th Parish
With plans underway to aid in the development of Portmore, Jamaica’s soon-to-be 15th parish, one clergyman, Bishop Alvin Bailey questions the government’s intentions. He says he suspects the move is a political one. The bishop is urging the government to hold off on its plans, and take a closer look into how the move will affect the residents of Portmore. He doesn’t believe adequate planning and research were done before announcing the move. He has some questions.
Prime Minister Holness revealed plans to improve the health infrastructure in the soon-to-be parish, as well as the construction of a fire station and a market. More details below:
