Minister of Science, Energy, Telecommunications and Transport, Hon. Daryl Vaz, has called for enhanced collaboration in leveraging nuclear technology to meet Jamaica’s sustainable development goals.
He made the appeal on Tuesday (October 29), while speaking at the Scientific Research Council (SRC) 31st Science and Technology Conference, which lasts from October 29 to November 2 at the Jamaica Conference Centre, downtown Kingston.
“Nuclear applications, when applied thoughtfully and responsibly, offer unprecedented opportunities,” the Minister said, while underlining the Government’s commitment to safe and responsible nuclear practices.
