Saying that it “sets the tone” for this year to be a “great” one, Opposition member and Leader of the Liberty and Justice Party (LJP) Lenox Shuman yesterday threw his support behind this year’s budget while contending that Indigenous People now have better access to education and healthcare.

“I will say unreservedly that Budget 2023 sets the tone for this year to be a great year,” Shuman said during his contribution on the 2023 national budget. Shuman currently holds a list-joinder seat which groups three political parties.

While he did not address any specific aspect of the budget in detail, Shuman spoke about his contributions towards the development of Indigenous People, which he said resulted in their greater access to education and health care.
