Guyana could possibly face suspension from the global extractive industries transparency group (EITI) if the government doesn’t name its members to the Multi-Stakeholders Group (MSG), which manages the process.
It is unclear why the government has not complied with the simple requirement of naming its members even though it has been written to on the matter by the Norway-headquartered Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI).
The EITI is the international benchmark for transparency in the extractives sector and Guyana initiated the process of joining in 2010.
