Deeds and Commercial Registry offices to be opened in Mahdia and Linden – Nandlall
Attorney General (AG) and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall SC
Kaieteur News – Attorney General (AG) and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall SC has announced that the Government is one step closer establishing new Deeds and Commercial Registry Offices in Mahdia, Region Eight and Linden, Region Ten.
He said that efforts are also underway to upgrade the Deeds and Commercial Registry sub office in New Amsterdam, Berbice Region Six. The Attorney General made this disclosure during his weekly commentary programme ‘Issues in the News’ Tuesday night as he spoke of plans to establish Deeds and Commercial Registry offices in all ten regions “You will recall that President Ali had made a promise that offices of the Deeds and Commercial Registry Authority will be established in all the regions all the outlying regions of the country. Well, this week, we will be establishing one in Mahdia and that will be done I believe Friday and before the end of the month another one will be established in Linden in Region 10.
According to Nandlall the Linden Office will be established by the end of this month.
“We would have completed establishing offices in all the outlying regions. We already have in Region One. We have a spanking new building in Region Two on the Essequibo coast at Suddie, a brand new building that the President opened. We established offices in Region Seven in Bartica. We established an office in Region Nine at Lethem. And now we are concluding the outlying areas by opening one at Mahdia Friday and Linden Region 10,” the AG said. He noted that the residents will now benefit from the ease and convenience of accessing a host of services offered by the registry.
Significantly, the Attorney General announced that the government is building a brand new office for the sub registry for the Deed and Commercial Registry at New Amsterdam. “Currently the Deeds and Commercial Registry at [New Amsterdam] occupies very cramped conditions beneath the High Court building which they share with the registry of the court. The conditions have become almost intolerable. I visited recently and there is hardly any space for persons to walk and the documents that are being stored there are large volumes and you don’t have space. So, a headquarters is badly needed in Berbice and we are building a brand new building at Esplanade Road.”
According to the AG, the contract sum would be somewhere between $ 767 million. He announced that bids will soon be out for a modern complex that will house the deeds and commercial registry, New Amsterdam, in Berbice.
