The two sides

Representatives of the University of Guyana (UG) yesterday met with Attorney General Anil Nandlall to discuss the terms of a new agreement with officials of the University of the West Indies and the Council of Legal Education for the continued automatic admissions of graduates of the UG Law Programme into the Hugh Wooding Law School.

Admission of UG students to Hugh Wooding has been a contentious issue over many years.

The visiting UG delegation comprised Vice Chancellor of the University of Guyana, Professor Paloma Mohamed-Martin; Registrar of the University of Guyana, Dr Nigel Gravesande; and the Head of the Department of Law of the University of Guyana, Attorney-at-law Kim Kyte-Thomas. Also in attendance were State Solicitor, Public Trustee and Official Receiver, Prithima Kissoon; and State Counsel, Raeanna Clarke.
