Relocation of some farms and income support for farmers are among recommendations made in an assessment of the floods that have swamped large swathes of the country over the last month.
The assessment is being done by the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA) in collaboration with Guyana’s Civil Defence Commission (CDC), according to a statement yesterday from the Office of the Prime Minister.
Prime Minister Mark Phillips and team of government ministers were updated on the findings yesterday, the statement said.
