Commemorative services to mark the death anniversaries of all former presidents will now be state-funded functions.
This is according to Minister of State Joseph Harmon, who was responding to a question as to whether all former presidents who are deceased will have a commemorative service like the one being held for Forbes Burnham today.
The Ministry of the Presidency had issued a public invitation for persons to attend the service to mark the 32nd death anniversary of Burnham today.
