Following a report in the last Sunday Stabroek about Venezuelan migrants living in poor conditions in Linden and tensions in the community,  Minister of Foreign Affairs Hugh Todd vowed yesterday to take decisive action in partnership with local authorities.

He spoke after this newspaper contacted him in relation to the plight of the Venezuelans.

On March 8th this year, Todd  chaired a meeting of the Multi-Agency Coordinating Committee to address the influx of migrants from Venezuela and said that the long-term objective was to integrate them into Guyanese society.
