That NaRRA Bill

The Hon. Senator, Dana Morris Dixon

The National Reconstruction and Resilience Authority (NaRRA) Bill, tabled in March 2026 and passed by the House of Representatives in April 2026, aims to accelerate infrastructure reconstruction following Hurricane Melissa. It establishes a single authority to fast-track procurement and development projects, reducing bureaucratic delays. Bark Di Trute hopes to get a copy of the bill soon.

Many Jamaicans are not aware of the importance or unimportance of this NaRRA Bill. We have been bombarded with cussing and tracing in Parliament, and we are still in the dark. The Hon. Senator Dana Morrison Dixon has published a document with questions and answers. I would love for the PNP to send out its information about this NaRRA, and those who do not feel obligated to any political party should put out information to help the people understand what is happening. This is what many would call wishful thinking.

US To Take Steps To Assist Stranded Ships In The Strait of Hormuz

Iran's closure of the channel—which is crucial to oil exports from the Gulf - has seen fuel prices rise globally and also left thousands of sailors stranded on some 2,000 ships trapped by the blockade. 

The United States says it will on Monday begin trying to free merchant ships stranded by Iran's closure of the key shipping channel, the Strait of Hormuz, since the start of the war. Will this have an effect on oil prices? Will this affect the current ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran? Only time will tell.

This war is affecting the whole world. Will the rest of the world stand by and suffer? Will other states in the Middle East continue to allow attacks from Iran? 

War is not pretty, and the outlook of tensions growing and the war intensifying is real.

New Caymanian Law Makes It Easier To Get Rid Of Public Servants

Reports out of the Cayman Islands are that parliament has changed its laws to make it easier to get rid of civil servants who have committed certain offences. A lower standard of proof is required under the new law. This came into effect on March 31, 2026.

Cayman Marl Road Media House says that disciplinary decisions will be made on the “balance of probabilities,” meaning management only needs to be satisfied that misconduct is more likely than not to have occurred.

Jamaica needs to have a look at this Caymanian law, which I am sure could benefit this country. We are aware of non-performing departments, which would mean that these places are staffed with poorly performing public servants. We hear talk about the procurement system slowing down the process of implementing government programmes. Greater accountability from public servants could make a big difference.

This means that department heads and management must ensure that there is accountability. There is the feeling among many that many public servants are sabotaging the government.

One thing is certain, and that is the public sector needs a shakeup. The government is probably scared of dealing with the union!

This Mace Argument Makes Jamaicans Look Stupid!!!

We have a time when intelligent and educated people behave in a way that makes it seem as if they are stupid. I am now thinking that these intellectuals think that the rest of us are stupid. These discussions taking place about the removal of the mace by an MP while parliament is in session make it seem as if we are all idiots, and I know that we are not. 

If you want to know how the business of parliament is to be conducted and how the members of parliament are to conduct themselves, we just need to check the standing orders for the Jamaican Parliament.

Most Hon. Juliet
Holness

If a member breached the standing orders for whatever reason, the standing orders have been breached, and the person who has the power to take action supported by parliament is the Speaker of the House. If the Speaker of the House takes a decision guided by the standing orders, then why are we going down the path of tearing down the Speaker? Is that why our children don't support authority, because our leaders don't? Probably that is why very little education is taking place because there is no respect for law, order, and authority.

We are now an independent country that continues to maintain certain links and certain traditions with the United Kingdom. Having that mace and using it as a symbol of the authority of Parliament does not minimize how the mace is treated under the standing orders of Parliament.

This colonial argument seems to be taking centre stage again. Let it be clearly understood that the days of slavery and our colonial past cannot be whitewashed nor painted over in black. Our colonial past is part of our history, and that cannot change. We can, however, change what needs to be changed and keep what is beneficial to us. Not everything colonial is bad.

One look at many of us, and we see colonialism in us. Are we going to paint over our skins? Are we going to get rid of our cars? Are we going to stop eating using knives and forks? Do we plan to get rid of the English language? Are we going to get rid of Jamaica since it was abandoned and given to us by our colonial masters? Having Jamaica is probably the only reparation we will ever have.

Let's get real. Our history is our history, and that cannot be changed. Let's make the best of what we have now and stop using our intellectual abilities to try to fool the rest of the nation. What the MP did with the mace was wrong and probably required harsher punishment. To disrupt the highest court in the land is not something to be taken lightly.

This is not a matter of what you think or what your opinion is; it is what it is! Bark Di Trute continues to Bark Di Trute. Who wan' bex can bex.

Check Your Purchased Food Items Carefully - You Could Be Shocked At What's Inside

What the hell is happening? Insects in rice, packaged in plastic! This is now getting out of hand. I purchased items from the Grace Supermarket in Liguanea this week, and I picked up a bag of rice packed with dead insects. Recently, it was metal in the sugar, and now it's insects in the rice. I wonder what's next.

Do not buy Three Jewels Rice until you get further advice from the Consumer Affairs Commission. Keep your receipt and the rice in a safe place.

Have a look at the pictures below. The matter will be reported to the relevant persons and organizations.

Insects seemed to be in an intimate situation.

The only jewels in the rice were insects.

This seems like the batch number.

The receipt.
