Coopers Pen Relocation Tension: Prime Minister Andrew Holness visited the Coopers Pen, Trelawny community after homes were demolished on Aug. 11, warning residents he cannot keep people on privately owned land and saying emergency powers may be needed if new occupants move in. He stressed the government does not support squatting and outlined plans for a social survey and possible relocation to other nearby acreages.
