EDITORIAL - The PM’s Divestment Of Leadership

Apr 17, 2013

KINGSTON. Jamaica - Leadership is often a difficult, lonely process that is not given to being franchised out.
But judging from her handling of the Richard Azan debacle, this is a concept that Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller does not find opportune, at this time, to embrace. The PM, instead, uses her Cabinet as insulation.
Maybe she didn't think deeply about it, but Mrs Simpson Miller, by her action, is likely creating a moral hazard for herself. In the future, should she, in her sole discretion, contemplate revoking the appointment of a member of the executive, that person may well ask for the 'Azan Procedure'. Let the Cabinet decide.
