Housing concerns in Bath Settlement addressed by AG

Attorney General and Legal Affairs Minister, Mohabir Anil Nandlall, SC, revealed that 59 land
titles are set to be distributed to residents of Bath Settlement, West Coast Berbice (WCB).
Nandlall disclosed this on Wednesday, during a meeting with residents to address their housing
concerns. The Minister Nandlall disclosed the importance of land titles to residents, educating
them about the necessary legal procedures that must be followed before titles are issued.
It was noted that as residents expressed gratitude for government’s intervention, the AG stressed
that the PPP/C Administration remains committed to ensuring that housing issues are
continuously rectified in the shortest possible time.

He told those in attendance that this is being done at little to no cost to citizens and is expected to
be completed by May 2022.
“At the end of this exercise, 59 families will end up with a certificate of title each in their hands.
The process is not going to cost you any significant sum of money or any money at all, because
the government is carrying the bulk of the expenditures associated with the exercise,” Nandlall
explained.
The AG and Legal Affairs minister assured that government will continue to be directly involved
with citizens across the country.
“I want to remind you that this is the style of government and governance that we promised
during the elections campaign, and this is what we are delivering right across the length and
breadth of Guyana…we said we are going to come to you wherever you are. We are not going to
govern Guyana from Georgetown and in air-conditioned offices. We will come into the streets,
we will come into the dams, we will come into the villages…and we will attend to whatever the
issues are that you are facing…when we told you that, we were not bluffing,” he declared.
