TIVOLI ENQUIRY: No televised sitting Thursday
KINGSTON, Jamaica – The viewing public will not be able to watch the Tivoli Enquiry on Thursday as the staff of the Jamaica Information Service (JIS) is expected to attend the funeral service for their late colleague, Michael Shaw.
Commission Chairman Sir David Simmons said he was informed by the JIS that due to the skeleton staff, the organisation would not be able to broadcast the sitting.
Simmons said he would continue with the sitting because time was “tight” and he didn’t want to lose another day.
He apologised to the public.
Shaw, a veteran photographer, collapsed and died last month at the JIS offices in Kingston after returning from an assignment.
