JTA President Dr Mark Smith
The Jamaica Teachers Association (JTA) has observed that the strategies outlined by Opposition Leader Mark Golding for home ownership for public sector workers is a step in the right direction to help retaining teachers.
During his contribution to the 2025-2026 Budget Debate in the House of Representatives on Tuesday, Mr Golding outlined a slew of benefits he proposes to put in place for prospective homeowners, and public sector workers contributing to the National Housing Trust.
He said teachers, nurses, police officers and other public servants, and any individual contributing to the NHT, will be able to own their homes.
In response, Dr Mark Smith, President of the JTA, told Radio Jamaica News that there is need for solutions to improve the quality of life for his members.
He added that he's looking forward to details from the Opposition Leader on how the proposed housing solutions will be funded.
