The People’s National Party, PNP is again calling on the government to reconsider the planned development of the Bernard Lodge Lands in St. Catherine.
Opposition Spokesperson on Land and Housing, Senator Sophia Frazer-Binns, says the plans for the development of the Bernard Lodge lands must be rethought in light of the economic fallout from COVID-19.
In a statement yesterday Senator Frazer Binns says every country is affected by the measures to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, and therefore, it will be every country for itself.
She says, for this reason, it is important to re-introduce the philosophy of self-reliance and get ahead of the curve in providing adequate and secure food to Jamaicans.
These realities must send an urgent signal to the government to rethink its plans for the use of Bernard Lodge lands and all Agricultural lands.
