Dollar dilemma - Golding reveals 2007/08 Budget exchange rate, chided by Davies

Jamaica Gleaner News: "Prime Minister Bruce Golding revealed in Parliament yesterday that the former Portia Simpson Miller administration had calculated the 2007/2008 Budget on an exchange rate of J$71 to US$1. But former Minister of Finance, Dr. Omar Davies, said he was surprised that the Prime Minister had disclosed that information, noting that it had always been the policy of the previous administration and the relevant officials not to discuss that 'for obvious reasons'."
