Guyana’s Forensic laboratory is scheduled for completion very soon. Equipment that will outfit the facility is already in the country and staff selected.

The Inter – American Development Bank is a partner with the Guyana Government on the $700M facility and several others under the Citizen Security Programme (CSP) like the recently commissioned Police Training Center.
