In a significant political development, King’s Counsel Tom Tavares-Finson was reinstated as the President of Jamaica’s Senate during the ceremonial commencement of Parliament on Thursday. The reappointment, marked by bipartisan cooperation, saw Tavares-Finson nominated by Senator Kamina Johnson Smith of the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP). The nomination garnered support from Senator Donna Scott-Mottley of the opposition People’s National Party (PNP), who seconded the motion. Following this, Tavares-Finson solemnly took the oath of allegiance, reaffirming his commitment to his role. Additionally, Senator Charles Sinclair was appointed as the Deputy President of the Senate, further solidifying the leadership structure. This event underscores the collaborative spirit within Jamaica’s political landscape, as both governing and opposition parties united to endorse Tavares-Finson’s leadership.
