In a statement on Friday, Lord Goldsmith, Minister of State with responsibility for the Commonwealth and the Environment among other portfolios adverted to the intersections with Guyana’s low carbon development programme.
“We are delighted that the UK has been working in partnership with Guyana to develop this bespoke plan as part of the UK’s commitment to help countries, especially Small Island Developing States, to develop their marine economies in a sustainable, resilient, and integrated way. This national Maritime Economy Plan, alongside Guyana’s updated Low Carbon Development Strategy articulates a strong vision of the Government to build a robust Blue Economy.
