Georgetown: Amerindian Land titling has been challenging in 2012 since the disbursement of the relevant funds did not matertialise, however, communities that submitted their application for support will be addressed in 2013, according to Minister of Amerindian Affairs, Pauline Sukhai.
“We have 13 villages which we have on the list to be titled, 32 villages to be demarcated, and we will begin the process of examining 41 village extension applications. All of this is slated to be done within three years brining a closure to the Amerindian land titling programme.”
The Norway funds which are intended to be used to speed up land demarcation have not yet been received. The Minister is counting on $600 million to get the job done.
