About this title

Synopsis

Percival Patterson has been the Prime Minister of Jamaica since March 30, 1992. This book brings together all of Pattersons annual budget presentations from 1992 to 2002. They contain the thoughts, views, projections and expectations of Patterson from constitutional reform to the Partys ideological moorings, to health, education, infrastructural undertakings to regional and international developments, and most importantly, the vision and type of society which he would like to create. They also represent the programmes and policies of the Government and the agenda which guided the Government through the budget year.

These budget presentations should be understood not just simply as the pragmatic exercise that they are, but also as a demonstrable method of communicating with the Jamaican people. They are essential reading for those involved in the area of public policy as well as for anyone interested in the national development of Jamaica
