“These arrangements will build on the foundation of the work done by social partners on implementing the agreements reached at the Presidential Job Summit in 2018 and will include transforming the current Presidential Working Committee on the Jobs Summit into a Presidential Working Committee on Economic Recovery,” says acting Presidency spokesperson Tyrone Seale.
The team will further focus on job creation, having a sectoral approach, infrastructure, energy security and economic growth.
“There is broad agreement that proposals for economic recovery need to be underpinned by immediate measures to protect jobs and livelihoods and building a capable state,” adds Seale.
Over the next few weeks, the team will present Nedlac and the President with an economic recovery action plan that will be submitted to Cabinet for endorsement.
