Kaieteur News – The Supreme Court of Judicature has indicated that plans are underway to have a new Magistrates’ Court constructed in New Amsterdam, Region Six.
According to a recent invitation for bids issued by the Judicature, proposals are being sought for the design and supervision aspect of the construction of the court.
Proposals are to be submitted to the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board (NPTAB) office on October 21, 2025.
During the presentation of the 2025 national budget, it was revealed that the government set aside $1.9 billon towards the expanding and upgrading of the physical infrastructure of the courts.
At the commissioning of the Friendship Magistrates’ Court earlier this year, Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Mohabir Anil Nandlall SC said that the establishment of new courts is part of government’s broader investments to ensure equitable access to justice.
Quoted in a Department of Public Information (DPI) article at the time, the AG said, “The administration of justice is crucial to a civilised society…We have now exceeded the construction of magistrates’ courts where they traditionally existed. We are now at a phase where we are building magistrates’ courts in areas where they never existed before…What more can a government do to demonstrate its commitment to ensuring access to justice for all its people wherever they are located?”
Nandlall also mentioned that there are now over 50 court facilities countrywide.
