Guyana EITI 2021 Report

Last year, the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) suspended Guyana from its membership because of the delay in compiling and publishing its 2020 annual report. The delay was attributed to a disagreement between the newly appointed National Coordinator and certain members of the Multi-Stakeholder Group over the terms of reference for the Independent Administrator responsible for compiling the report. The report was eventually published in July 2023. As a result, Guyana’s membership to that body was restored.

In today’s article, we discuss the main points of the 2021 Guyana EITI report, as reflected in the Executive Summary. The report was issued on 29 December 2023.
