AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Commonwealth Games build-up: Jamaica’s sprint stars are in top form as Torrie Lewis smashed her own Australian 100m record in Slovakia, beating Elaine Thompson-Herah, and is now set for Glasgow in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m. Sports spotlight: West Indies wrapped their ODI series with a win over New Zealand, with Jamaican teenage spinner Vitel Lawes among the wicket-takers. Education & exams: CXC is rolling out sensitisation on its School-Based Assessment reforms, with principals warning pass rates may dip at first as students adjust to the new Paper 032 approach. Local governance & services: Jamaica Post is being repositioned as a government service centre, with pilots planned and damaged post offices from Hurricane Beryl and Melissa being rebuilt. Community safety: Residents in St James say road sections at John’s Hall are deteriorating and need urgent repairs. Immigration & justice: Jamaica-born lawful permanent resident Garnet Smith was released after months in an ICE facility, while another Jamaican national remains in custody pending removal proceedings. Energy costs: Petrojam says it has spent about US$18m subsidising fuel to cushion consumers from global oil price swings.
