Press Release From The Ministry of Justice April 30, 2025
Hon. Delroy Chuck KC, MP - Minister of Justice
I have been advised that an individual has been appointed to carry out the field functions previously conducted by the then stand-alone Political Ombudsman.
I understand that the Electoral Commission of Jamaica (ECJ) has also been undertaking the work of the Political Ombudsman, to include receiving complaints and related matters concerning the previously held Local Government Elections.
Moreover, I must make it abundantly clear that a sum of J$60Million Dollars provided for in the Budget for the 2024-2025 Financial Year for matters related to the role and functions of that office, WAS NOT USED BY THE ECJ.
It appears that expenses in relation to the role and function of the Political Ombudsman is funded from the ECJ’s budget
With this new development, I am now urging the ECJ to provide details surrounding the terms and engagement of the individual now functioning in the role of the previous office of the Political Ombudsman, as well as how members of the public can contact that office with election related matters.
