Tax Waiver period for disaster relief supplies extended

The waiver of import duty and General Consumption Tax on Hurricane Melissa relief supplies and donations has been extended to the end of the year. It was first announced that it would run until November 28, but Prime Minister Dr Andrew Holness says it is being extended to ensure every shipment of emergency supplies reach affected persons. #GLNRToday
