AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Local Security & Community Pressure: Residents in Amity Hall, St James, are renewing calls for the police station to be restored after Hurricane Melissa left the facility unusable, with the nearest station now about 15 km away and a recent murder adding urgency. Investment & Reconstruction: Prime Minister Andrew Holness pitched Jamaica to international investors in Miami, saying the post-Hurricane Melissa rebuild should accelerate growth in infrastructure, energy, housing, ports, airports, logistics, tourism and more—positioning Jamaica as “safe for you to invest” and “the Singapore of the Caribbean.” Finance Law Update: Finance Minister Fayval Williams opened debate on the Virtual Assets Service Providers Bill 2026, aiming to license and regulate crypto/digital asset businesses serving Jamaicans and warning that operating without a licence is a criminal offence. Public Services for Pensioners: The Accountant General’s Department will hold a life certificate pop-up drive on Sept. 24 at the Church of the Open Bible in Kingston to help pensioners submit on time and avoid disruptions. Environment Watch: NEPA says a whale carcass washed ashore in Salt Marsh, Trelawny has been removed, but the public is still urged to avoid affected waters and keep distance from marine wildlife. Justice System Scrutiny: INDECOM is defending its investigative process after residents protested a police fatal shooting in Seaford Town, Westmoreland, and questions were raised about the police account following spent shells found outside the stated crime scene area.
