AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Caribbean Tourism Push: Caribbean Week in New York opens June 1 with a strong turnout of tourism ministers and commissioners, aiming to boost regional resilience and market share. Youth Health & Regulation: World No Tobacco Day coverage warns that Caribbean youth are buying vapes easily via shops and social media, with flavours masking nicotine addiction risks and policy lagging behind the fast spread. Public Safety Oversight: INDECOM is calling for a major overhaul of Jamaica’s body-worn camera deployment so accountability is prioritised in high-risk police operations, not mainly traffic/public safety zones. Agriculture Recovery: Jamaica says a US$50m FAO-backed agriculture recovery and resilience programme for Hurricane Melissa-affected farmers and fishers will be fully implemented in September. Border Security Training: Jamaica Customs officers complete weapons and ammunition management training to strengthen border protection using international best practices. Tourism Airlift: Air Canada adds more Jamaica flights for the 2026-27 winter season, signalling continued demand from Canada. Healthcare Manpower Deal: Ghana and Jamaica sign an agreement to deploy about 400 Ghanaian nurses to Jamaica under revived cooperation. Real Estate Capital Markets: A new Jamaica/Cayman real estate dealer reports J$3.5b in accepted offers in its first five months, pointing to ongoing investor appetite. Homelessness Response: KSAMC moves to address rising homelessness in downtown Kingston, starting with a multi-agency plan for “street to stability.”
