Guyana’s National Development Strategy (NDS), which was crafted almost two decades ago to chart the course for social and economic development, can serve as the basis for prioritising the use of expected oil revenues, according to British High Commissioner Greg Quinn.
During a “Meet the Press Day” at his official residence yesterday, Quinn told reporters that his government is interested in helping to update the NDS, but noted that the decision ultimately lies with the government.
The NDS was completed under the then PPP/C government and was a product of contributions by a wide cross-section of organisations, including the private sector, government and non-government agencies, and the University of Guyana.
