Kerrie Symmonds has been named Leader of Opposition Business in the House of Assembly.
The outspoken 47-year-old attorney at law and Member of Parliament for St James North was selected by Leader of the Opposition Mia Amor Mottley.
A former Minister of State in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade, Symmonds was the youngest person to chair the Council for Trade and Economic Development, a group of CARICOM ministers.
His “Kerrie Care Development Programme” in St James Central resulted in widespread road building and renewal, the introduction of natural gas and bus services to previously neglected areas, and the development of sporting and recreational facilities throughout the constituency. (MK)
