Cabinet to decide on cutting free air travel for MPs

[Lazie]

The Minister with direct responsibility for Air Jamaica Don Wehby is on Monday expected to ask Cabinet to sanction a cut in the perks given to Members of Parliament.

Mr. Wehby has reportedly proposed cutting from four to two the number of free first class trips provided to MPs, Senators and their spouses.
It is reported that the long term plan is to phase out the policy of providing free seats.

Mr. Wehby who is a Minister in the Finance Ministry, has been put in charge of bringing the national carrier out of the red.
