Opposition Spokesman on Telecommunications Phillip Paulwell has called for full disclosure of all approvals, costs and processes related to the acquisition of star link devices for the hurricane Melissa response efforts.

In a statement today, Mr. Paulwell said the matter underscores growing questions about transparency, accountability and the management of public resources.

Mr. Paulwell added that Jamaicans at home and abroad deserve confidence that public resources are managed with integrity, particularly during periods of national recovery.
