Panel Discussion

Analyzing the Finance Minister’s Budget Presentation

As Jamaica is once again confronted by economic issues beyond our control in the form of rising gas and oil prices and an increase in the price of food across the board, is the new budget and proposed measures to ease the pain and burden of those less fortunate enough to carry the day and are we in position to afford them if international events continue as they are into the next year?

This evening we have a general assessment of the Finance Minister’s budget presentation yesterday.

Joining us, Dr. Nelson “Chris” Stokes, Development Economist and Financial Analyst and Brian Denning, Partner and CARICOM Tax Leader PriceWaterhouse Coopers.
