While the staff of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) struggle to work in its leaking, rodent-infested Camp Street Headquarters, the board is preparing to sign a lease with the Guyana Lands and Survey Commission so that they can be relocated.
“We still intend to build an office. We are actually now about to sign a lease with Lands and Surveys for the land [at Liliendaal] to build. That will, of course, take a while. In the meantime, we are working to fix the building we are occupying,” Commission er General Godfrey Statia told Stabroek News.
Statia explained that the agency was looking to cover the roof and seal certain areas which currently leak. He noted that even this process would take time as GRA has to go through the tender and procurement process.
