Prime Minister Andrew Holness has said the ticketing system for breaches of the coronavirus (COVID-19) guidelines should be ready soon.
Holness, who was responding to questions during a recent sitting of the House of Representatives, said the provisions will soon be presented to the Legislative Committee.
The ticketing system is to form part of efforts to ramp up enforcement of the COVID-19 restrictions.
Among other things, Jamaicans are required to adhere to protocols related to curfew, public gatherings, funerals, hosting of entertainment events, wearing of masks and public passenger transportation.
In addition, the prime minister told the House that other measures in relation to the revision of penalties are in progress.
“I am assured that the minister of justice is leading the charge on getting them done,” said Holness.
