Minister of Business Dominic Gaskin has expressed satisfaction with the pace of works being conducted on the development of the Industrial Estate at Lethem, South Rupununi, Region Nine.
According to a press release from the Department of Public Information (DPI), there had been a decline in the pace of works a few months ago but following a site visit by the consulting engineer, issues were ironed out and the works, including roads, culverts and drainage, are almost back on original schedule. The industrial site, built on the outskirts of Lethem, will be a source of employment for the community and also a business incubator with immediate impact for the region, according to Gaskin, who conducted a recent site visit.
