Member of Parliament for St Andrew South Western Dr. Angela Brown Burke has refuted a suggestion by the Prime Minister that she is the main proponent of claims that the Government is partisan in its delivery of Hurricane Melissa relief aid.

The opposition has expressed concern about the distribution of aid, and has noted that some residents are not benefiting.

Dr. Brown Burke again raised the issue in parliament today.

Prime Minister Dr. Andrew Holness in response said Dr. Brown Burke is the main proponent of the claims.

And, the Prime Minister said he has directed the relevant authorities to release details of public aid delivered to all MP’s.
