Gov’t appeals for patience from Hurricane Melissa victims still awaiting modular container homes

The Government has appealed for patience from Hurricane Melissa victims still awaiting modular container homes.

Minister with responsibility for Land Settlements Robert Montague made the appeal today while making his contribution to the Sectoral Debate.

It came in the wake of growing concern and frustration by residents displaced by Hurricane Melissa last October, as well as criticism from the opposition.

Mr. Montague noted that the Government is working through the bureaucracy.

He argued that the situation supports the need for the National Reconstruction and Resilience Authority (NARRA).
