PDP: Young professionals need access to land
PDP deputy leader Farley Augustine -
The Progressive Democratic Patriots (PDP) is intent on making land more accessible for young people if successful in the January 25 THA election.
In a live discussion on its Facebook page on Wednesday, PDP deputy leader Farley Augustine and Providence/Mason Hall/Moriah candidate Ian Whitey Pollard lamented the lack of realistic opportunities for young people to own land.
Augustine, who is seeking a second term as the electoral representative for Parlatuvier/L Anse Fourmi/Speyside seat, said the discussion is relevant to his personal experience as well.
Augustine, 35, said he too is struggling to own a home as the market is priced out of his range.
