Shadow Cabinet of Jamaica

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Shadow Cabinet of Jamaica (usually known simply as The Shadow Cabinet) is, in the Westminster system of government in traditional constitutional theory, an alternative to the cabinet who scrutinise their corresponding Cabinet of Jamaica ministers, develop alternative policies, and hold the Government to account for its actions and responses. Since February 2016, the People's National Party has been Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition in Jamaica, and its leadership therefore forms the current Shadow Cabinet.[1]
