The EPA building at Whim

Minister of State Joseph Harmon yesterday assured that mechanisms are being put in place to deal with potential oil spills offshore Guyana.

Harmon, in one of his last assignments as minis-ter,  was at the time speak-ing at the commissioning ceremony for the new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) building at Whim Village, Corentyne.

Since he is a dual citizen, Harmon has had to tender his resignation from parliament and this take effect from today.
