The PBCJ Act
PBC Jamaica was created by an Act of Parliament in 1997 to fulfill the need to transmit positive values and attitudes within society via audiovisual broadcast. The PBCJ disseminates news, information and ideas on matters of general public interest produced by government agencies that contribute to the education of the Jamaican audience. The agency also focuses on literary and artistic expression, the development of culture, human resources and sports and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.
