AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

ZOSO Review: Jamaica’s government will commission a comprehensive evaluation of its Zones of Special Operations, aiming to measure costs and benefits and map what works into a longer-term “zones of peace” framework. Courts Digitisation: Justice Minister Delroy Chuck says the Integrated Electronic Case Management System will replace paper-based court processes, with IECMS designed to modernise Jamaica’s justice system after a Rwanda design-and-implementation agreement. Aviation Law Update: The House approved the Civil Aviation (Amendment) Act, 2026, to align local rules with ICAO standards ahead of a 2027 USOAP audit. SEZ Facilitation: JSEZA launched an online Facilitation Tool to streamline SEZ applications, submissions and tracking for investors. Banking Deal: Scotiabank moved to take Scotia Group Jamaica private, proposing a buyout of minority shares at $61.50 each, pending court and shareholder approvals. Finance & Reserves: Jamaica’s foreign reserves were reported at US$6.48b at end-May, giving the BOJ room to manage FX pressure and shocks. Security & Justice Case: Munga Honourable and co-accused were freed after the prosecution offered no further evidence, citing inconsistencies in the sole eyewitness account. Sports (Local): West Indies opened their T20 series with a seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka at Sabina Park, led by Shai Hope’s unbeaten 65 and bowling from Jason Holder and Shamar Joseph.
