Waiting game at the Manor

There have been mixed feelings over the move of the Supreme Court and the Registration Department (also called the Registry) to the Manor Lodge Complex, Green Hill, St Michael.

The Registry is into its second week of operations; however, the courts officially reopened on Monday, following a temporary relocation while refurbishment work is done on the Supreme Court Complex at Whitepark Road.

When a NATION team visited the complex this week, there was a gathering of people outside the Registry waiting to collect and apply for birth certificates and other documents. Inside, the scene resembled a conga line gathering, with little room to turn or twist in any direction. (RA)
