GECOM seeking technical aid from Jamaica counterpart on merging data

The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) is seeking technical assistance on data merging from the Electoral Commission of Jamaica.

According to Public Relations Officer Yolanda Ward, Deputy Chief Elec-tion Officer Roxanne Myers and the commission’s Information Techno-logy Manager are in Jamai-ca examining practices in data merging, cross-matching of fingerprints and verifying processes.

It is expected that upon their return “before Monday” they will update the secretariat which will then provide a work programme for the commission to examine at its Tuesday meeting.
