Yesterday, on RJR's Beyond the Headlines, Dionne Jackson Miller played two unedited excerpts on the Education Minister talking about the ministry's position on the 4 CXC subjects that were being paid by the previous govt.
In the first excerpt, Holness was asked if he had ever promised to stop these payments. He said no, or he couldn't recall or whatever, as he attempted to weasel his way clear. But, in clarifying the govt's position, he said that they had no intention of stopping the payments but might look into how they could build some incentives into it.
RJR then played the second excerpt which was taped when the JLP was the opposition. In response to a direct question, Holness said, "No, we will not continue those payments of the CXC subjects." (paraphrase)
I do hope RJR can get him on the program tonight to give him another opportunity to flip. Or flop!
