@NestaJA@AuntyHersh Minister that’s not a suitable answer. This pothole, another at the stoplight exiting Portmore and another leading up to ferry police station has been there for months and it shows that maintenance of this major road hasn’t be checked. Something needs to be done immediately.
According to the Ministry of Finance, for the financial year ending 2024, the NHT collected JM$43.061 billion in income and spent JM$12.946 billion in operating expenses.
These figures are shocking as the average number of housing completions by the NHT from 2018 to 2022 is 2157 per annum.. (Economic and Social Survey of Jamaica 2022)
Additionally, the NHT generated a surplus of JM$21.8 billion for the financial year 2023/2024.
With an employed labour force of 1.27 million, the NHT is delivering less than 0.18% of houses or 'housing completions' for our working population.
So, instead of building houses for our people, the NHT is taking a percentage of workers' and employers' salaries to build cash in the bank.
Yet NHT executives are making substantial salaries annually.
