PNP outlines priorities ahead of 88th conference

KINGSTON, Jamaica — The People’s National Party (PNP) parliamentary group has outlined a series of urgent national issues it will prioritise ahead of the party’s 88th Anniversary Conference, including back-to-school preparations, the rising cost of living, drought conditions, the Government’s response to Hurricane Melissa, and poor infrastructure.

In a statement issued Monday, the PNP said its parliamentary group met over two days to assess key challenges facing Jamaicans and reached agreement on several areas requiring immediate focus.

The group said its elected representatives and party workers have been tasked with focusing on the work programme outlined by the party’s Secretariat and approved by the National Executive Council (NEC).
