Prime Minister Andrew Holness says he is aware of the hurt and suffering faced by many in the entertainment industry due to the significant loss of resources.
He said the Government sees music and culture as a part of our economic recovery, and as such, will allocate funds towards the industry.
The Prime Minister made the comments as also encouraged major stakeholders in the industry to join the Government in developing strategies for the delivery of their product; this as the industry is expected to attract many as the country transitions out of the pandemic.
Prime Minister Holness also noted that part of the capital investment that the Government will have to make is in entertainment spaces, venues and locations which he acknowledges are insufficient.
