Official Gazette online version launched

Anil-NandalallGeorgetown: Government launched the online version of the Official Gazette; this will enable scores of Guyanese residing overseas who are interested in owning land to have a new perspective.

According to Attorney General Anil Nandlall, the relevant Bill seeks to establish for the first time, a statutory footing for the Official Gazette and make that document more accessible to Guyanese and others by placing it online on a government website.

He added: “There is a need to tread the technological path, as it is an accepted fact that the world is going in that direction; as such, unless Guyana implements policies, changes the structures and promulgates structures that ensure it is a part of that global trend, then it is likely that we will be left behind as a country…“In putting this Official Gazette online, not only are we taking our development up a notch on the technological ladder, but we are resorting to a course that we are almost certain will improve the situation of non-accessibility.”
