Minister of Education, Skills, Youth and Information, Senator Dr the Hon. Dana Morris Dixon, says Jamaica's proposed Third Country Nationals (TCN) arrangement with the United States includes strict safeguards and oversight mechanisms.
Minister Morris Dixon noted that the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) limits the programme to 25 individuals at a time and stipulates that the arrangement will end if more than 10 persons apply for asylum in Jamaica.
The Minister further indicated that the International Organization for Migration will monitor the programme to ensure compliance with international law, while negotiations continue on several operational details before the agreement is finalized and released to the public.
