Prime Minister Andrew Holness has stepped into the Coppers Pen demolition controversy, telling displaced residents that while he cannot promise they will remain on the disputed lands, his Government will work towards finding a fair and sustainable way forward.
Holness visited the Trelawny community following the demolition of several homes on August 11, saying he wanted to see the situation for himself and speak directly with those affected.
âIâm here today to conduct for myself a ground-truthing exercise,â Holness said during the visit.
