Hon. Michael Peart, Speaker of the House of Representatives (Jamaica): Allow Tivoli Committee to address 2010 Tivoli Gardens massacre

The Issue

Dear Hon. Michael Peart,
This is to demand that the Jamaican House of Representatives allow a representative of the Tivoli Committee to address the House from the Bar regarding urgent, unresolved matters relating to the sufferings of the residents of Tivoli Gardens and west Kingston arising from the brutal assault committed against them by the Jamaican security forces in May 2010.

This demand is in keeping with House Rules which make allowance for citizens to bring urgent matters in this manner to the attention of country's elected representatives.

Your record as Speaker of the House up to this point is unimpeachable and it is hoped that this will ensure that partisan considerations will not deter you from respecting citizens' rights.

Respectfully,
