The Ministry of Indigenous Peoples’ Affairs last Wednesday signed a contract for the continued expansion of the Indigenous Residence in Georgetown.

According to a press statement issued by the Ministry, the contract was signed by Permanent Secretary of the Ministry Alfred King, Engineer Trilloyd Allen and a representative from the construction company.    

The residence, which is located on Princes Street, Wortmanville, is used to house Indigenous persons visiting from the hinterland to seek medical and other services in Georgetown.
