Kaieteur News – Less than three months after a request was made by the Guyana Association of Professional Engineers, (GAPE) for an Engineering Bill to be considered by the Government, Minister Juan Edghill has delivered the draft document for Cabinet Sub-Committee consideration.
This news was shared with the Engineering Association last week during a meeting.
According to the Ministry of Public Works, the Members were pleased to learn that Minister Edghill has delivered on his promise to deliberate on the Engineering Bill with his Cabinet colleagues for possible inclusion into legislation.
At the last meeting held with the Association on September 4th, 2020, the team had underscored the importance of the bill.
During last week’s discussion with representatives, engineers, Jacklyn Major and John Cush, Minister Edghill disclosed that several major projects are to be untaken soon and the expertise of local engineers will be critical.
A few of the projects mentioned by the Minister was the deep water harbour project and the Suriname River Bridge Crossing, among others.
