The Jamaican Cabinet has endorsed the establishment of an Economic Advisory Council to advise Finance Minister, Dr Peter Phillips, on economic issues which will promote growth and development in the country.



The Council will comprise former Financial Secretaries, Collin Bullock and Shirley Tyndale; and Economist, Dennis Morrison.



Minister with responsibility for Information, Sandrea Falconer, told journalists today that the decision was taken to establish the council given the economic challenges facing the country at this time.



She says these challenges require informed and timely implementation of suitable remedial measures.
