83 fisherfolk to get COVID-19 relief


Green
The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries has started the disbursement of relief to 83 fisherfolk from four main fishing beaches in St Catherine and Hunts Bay in St Andrew who have been severely impacted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fisherfolk from Old Harbour Bay, Hellshire and Port Henderson in St Catherine, and Hunts Bay were singled out for a special allocation of $30,000 because they were significantly affected from the lockdown of the parish during the early onset of the pandemic.
Agriculture and Fisheries Minister Floyd Green, who handed out eight of the vouchers on Wednesday at a ceremony at the Old Harbour Bay Baptist Church, said the Government has also allocated $24 million to procure cold storage containers that will be placed strategically at fishing beaches across the country as part of a renewed focus on improving the fishing industry.
