No List Was Sent, Juliet Holness Says No Request Made 0

Last week, Television Jamaica broke news that Mrs Holness, wife of Prime Minister Andrew Holness, had a very specific requirements for which should be fulfilled if she were to attend the charity event where she is expected to make a presentation.

According to TVJ, listed as requirements are that the organisers furnish Mrs Holness with a minimum of three (3) cell phones and or sim cards with unlimited calling capability and data services which must be at no cost to her.

TVJ reported that Mrs Holness required that she have a green room to herself with two (2) sofas or love seats, two (2) padded armchairs, coffee table, end tables and table lamps if necessary. The station also reported that Mrs Holness required a full length mirror, two (2) medium sized trash cans with plastic liners, seating for fifteen and freshly cleaned silverware and glassware.

Mrs Holness disclosed that she never saw that list until TVJ broke the story.

She however said that subsequent checks were made and she discovered that a member of her team was working on requirements for her local and international engagements. According to Holness, the document in question was in draft stages and was never sent out.

“I know for the persons who have been making the efforts to try and ensure that there are detail in terms of what to expect; I know it comes from a good place in ensuring that you are not embarrassed or your host embarrassed in understanding certain things,” she said in explaining the undertaking of one of her staff.
