The Guyana Human Rights association (GHRA) is strongly recommending that the Parliamentary Office suspend the current process of re-populating the ‘rights’ Commissions until an impartial review of their performance over the past seven years has been done.
In a statement on Friday to mark International Human Rights Day on Sunday, the GHRA also strongly reiterated its opposition to any attempt to create a Guyana Human Rights Commission on the basis of what it said was the current “bizarre” formula reflected in Article 212 of the Constitution.
It said that International Human Rights Day 2017 finds Guyana still without a Commission on Human Rights.
