Residents of Mabaruma, Region One were yesterday promised by Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, SC, that they will no longer have to travel to Georgetown or the Essequibo Coast to access services from the Deeds and Commercial Registry office.
The Department of Public Information (DPI) said that Nandlall informed residents of the township in a government outreach that his government will be establishing an office which will be housed within the Regional Democratic Council’s building.
“This service has never been extended to this region before. This is the first time in Guyana that the Deeds and Commercial Registry is having or will be having a presence here…We will establish an office here permanently,” DPI quoted the AG as saying. The new office will allow residents to register businesses, file property deeds, and access ownership records – without leaving Mabaruma, said DPI. It will also streamline business processes and potentially attract new entrepreneurs to the region.
