State Minister Delano Seiveright has welcomed the passage of the National Reconstruction and Resilience Authority (NaRRA) Bill in the House of Representatives, describing it as a critical step toward fast-tracking Jamaica’s recovery after Hurricane Melissa.
He cited an estimated US$12.2 billion in damage, with more than 215,000 structures affected and widespread disruption to schools, hospitals and infrastructure. Communities such as Black River were among the hardest hit.
