PPM Weekly Wrap Up
It has been another productive week for the Official Opposition as members continued engaging with the community, advocating for Caymanians and supporting important local initiatives.
The week began with the weekly Official Opposition appearance on For the Record with OC Connor, featuring Leader of the Opposition, Hon. Joey Hew, and Deputy Leader, Hon. Kenneth Bryan. During the programme, Mr. Bryan highlighted the upcoming official opening of Central Scranton Park on Saturday, 1 August, encouraging the public to attend and enjoy the new community space designed to bring people together through recreation, wellness and family friendly activities.
Hon. Joey Hew also continued his advocacy for Cayman’s small business community, calling for greater opportunities for micro and small businesses to compete for government contracts. The Leader urged Government to ensure local entrepreneurs have fair access to the procurement process, creating more opportunities for Caymanian businesses to grow and succeed.
On Thursday, Mr. Roy McTaggart attended the retirement celebration of Captain Gary Hydes following an outstanding 43 years of dedicated service to Cayman Airways. Mr. McTaggart joined family, friends and colleagues in recognising Captain Hydes’ remarkable contribution to the national airline and wished him every success in his well earned retirement.
Meanwhile, Mr. Roy Tatum provided residents with an update on progress at Eddie Sanchez Community Park, where work has officially begun on the new multi purpose basketball and pickleball court. Residents can already see construction underway, with site preparation, paving and installation works progressing as part of the first phase of the project. Mr. Tatum thanked everyone involved in helping deliver another important improvement for the Red Bay community.
As another busy week comes to a close, we thank you for your continued support and engagement.
From all of us at the PPM, we wish everyone a safe, relaxing and enjoyable weekend
