KINGSTON, Jamaica — Member of Parliament for St Andrew North Central Delano Seiveright, has sharply criticised the National Works Agency (NWA) after the agency failed to attend a packed Constituency Development Fund (CDF) meeting held Thursday at St Richards Primary School despite being formally invited.

The meeting, which drew strong resident turnout and intense discussion around deteriorating roads, drainage and infrastructure concerns across the constituency, also saw Seiveright strongly endorsing Prime Minister Andrew Holness’s push toward establishing a unified One Road Authority.

“The prime minister is absolutely correct. Jamaica urgently needs a far more coordinated and modern road management system. The current fragmented structure is beyond outdated. Accountability is too scattered, coordination is too weak and residents are tired of the delays and bureaucracy,” Seiveright said.
