The Government is preparing a sweeping package of legislative reforms aimed at curbing noise nuisance, indecent and vulgar music, littering and the improper disposal of garbage, while simultaneously overhauling Guyana’s occupational health and safety laws to better reflect the country’s rapidly expanding economy.

Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs Mohabir Anil Nandlall, S.C., announced the planned reforms during his weekly Issues in the News programme, describing them as part of a broader legislative agenda intended to modernise Guyana’s legal framework and address several long-standing public concerns.

“We are coming out with a large menu of legislative amendments to deal with noise nuisance, indecent and vulgar music, as well as littering and the deposit of large volumes of garbage. It is going to be a comprehensive set of measures that will treat with all of these matters,” Nandlall said.
