AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Slavery Reparations Push: Jamaica’s National Council on Reparations has formally asked King Charles to seek legal advice from the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council on whether Britain has a legal duty to provide compensation for slavery—while the UK government reiterates it will not pay reparations. Back-to-School Transport: JUTC says rural school buses and the wider fleet are out and running smoothly for the new term, with 99 rural buses on 86 routes serving 126 schools, and more buses being negotiated for later phases. Education Upgrades: The Mico CARE Centre received an upgraded classroom for students with special educational needs, and the Ministry says it’s investing over $1 billion in teaching and learning resources plus nutrition support. Justice Modernisation: Government outlines plans to modernise justice and correctional systems with digital tech, infrastructure, security, rehabilitation and training. Health Innovation: Windsor Wellness and Biovanta Labs launch Jamaica’s first at-home prostate screening kit. Public Safety: Police investigate a shooting on Constant Spring Road that left two injured. Sports: Jamaica names its team for the inaugural World Athletics Ultimate Championships in Budapest, including Oblique Seville and Tina Clayton.
