Bar Association Head raps gov’t over Registrar of Lands

A new Registrar of Lands has reportedly been appointed but without an amendment to the law this is illegal and the Ministry of the Presidency has been unresponsive when the issue was raised, head of the Guyana Bar Associa-tion (GBA) Christopher Ram says.

“We have learnt that the Ministry of the Presidency appointed an attorney-at-law as Registrar of Lands without an amendment to the Land Registry Act. Regrettably, that continues the very unlawful action to which the Bar Association had drawn attention,”
