I note with much regret the pre-dated media release of August 14, 2025 shared by the Jamaica Teachers’ Association (JTA) today (August 15, 2025). While it is disappointing that the members of the JTA’s leadership choose not to continue the discussions at today’s meeting that they demanded, the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service (MoFPS) remains committed to the matter of Wage and Fringe Benefits negotiations.
The Ministry of Finance and the Public Service welcomes Jamaica’s invitation to participate in the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) “FSRB Jurisdictions Guest Initiative.” This prestigious invitation was extended by FATF President Ms. Elisa de Anda Madrazo and will allow Jamaica to sit at the FATF table under its own flag and contribute to the organisation’s key policy discussions and working groups over the course of one year.
Finance Minister, Fayval Williams, notes comments in the public domain concerning the appointment of Mr. Dennis Chung as Chief Technical Director (CTD) of the Financial Investigations Division (FID) and a proposal that the Government inserts itself into the process by over-turning the recommendation of the Office of the Services Commission (OSC).
