New watchdog committee to track cost, progress of recovery projects
Prime Minister Dr Andrew Holness on Tuesday launched the Jamaica Reconstruction and Resilience Oversight Committee (JAMRROC), charging its members to provide “real-time, direct and independent accountability” as the national reconstruction effort continues. JAMRROC will provide oversight of the National Reconstruction and Resilience Authority (NaRRA), the body leading Jamaica’s recovery and rebuilding programme following Hurricane Melissa.
