-as Guyana prepares for ICAO audit
The National Assembly last week approved 16 amendments to the Civil Aviation Act which were identified as needed following a comprehensive review of the 2018 legislation to improve the aviation sector as Guyana prepares for an upcoming audit from the Internation-al Civil Aviation Organi-zation (ICAO).
Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill in his presentation to the Nation-al Assembly two Fridays ago stated that the issue of aviation safety is something that should never be compromised and the strongest possible framework of regulation is required with the highest standard of compliance.
Noting that Guyana is a member of the “international family”, Edghill said that it is required to ensure that “while we operate we meet best practices, satisfy international standards.”
