Consequent upon an “inundation” of requests from businesses and the general public seeking to “fully celebrate” the 50th Anniversary of the Independence of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, the Ministry of Public Security today announced that, in conjunction with the Guyana Police Force, it will temporarily relax the enforcement of the 2:00am business deadline to 4 a.m. for bars, night clubs and other places of entertainment.
“It is a time for celebration and knowing the Guyanese spirit the Ministry has seen the need for this relaxation. The period during which the 2 a.m. deadline will be extended to 4 a.m. is from Friday, May 20 to Monday, May 30, 2016.
“However, businesses and individuals are asked to note that the Guyana Police Force will continue to investigate and prosecute noise nuisance reports, drinking and driving, and other offences during this period”, the ministry said in a statement.
