UK official for visit

James Duddridge MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the UK’s Foreign & Commonwealth Office with specific responsibility for Caribbean relations, will be visiting Guyana tomorrow.
A release from the British High Commission today said that during visit he will meet the President, Prime Minister and several stakeholders in the political sphere, private sector and NGO community.

This will be the first visit by a FCO Minister to Guyana since 2002. It is a further demonstration of the strong ties between Guyana and the UK, and of the continuing desire to ensure these go from strength to strength, the release said.
