KINGSTON, Jamaica, Gleaner - Richard Byles, the co-chair of the oversight committee which has been established to monitor the implementation of Jamaica's programme with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), says the team assembled is not for window dressing. "I am a serious business person. I am not there to do anybody's bidding, and everybody that I have heard named to the committee, they are serious people too," Byles told The Gleaner yesterday. Finance Minister Dr Peter Phillips yesterday made good on a promise by the Government to put in place the oversight committee to ensure the country is meeting its obligations under the four-year extended fund facility.
