The National Park in Thomas Lands, Georgetown, is set to benefit from a number of initiatives aimed at enhancing its facilities so that visitors engaging in recreational pursuits could do so in relative safety.
A Ministry of the Presidency release on Monday stated that these initiatives are being undertaken by the Department of the Environment, through the Protected Areas Commission (PAC) in collaboration with the National Parks Commis-sion (NPC). These two organisations have been working together since the end of 2012 to upgrade the facilities at the National Park under the Three Parks Initiative. The Park is which heavily utilised by Georgetown residents has benefitted from many improvements and will continue to do so as more resources become available.It is unclear what prompted the release about the improvements as several of these had been reported before. Last week, the management of the National Park was criticised in a letter to this newspaper.
