General Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo Thursday said that government ministries and bodies could be reorganised so that government services are delivered more efficiently.
“We’re constantly looking to see how we can do better what we are doing in government,” Jagdeo told reporters at his weekly press conference at Freedom House.
Jagdeo is currently Guyana’s Vice President, and the party he leads governs Guyana. The PPP is seeking re-election in a few weeks when the September 1, 2025, General and Regional Elections are held.
Ahead of those elections, Jagdeo and other party leaders have outlined some of the PPP’s plans for another term in office. Improving government efficiency, he said, will be a key area of focus.
However, he said this doesn’t mean there will be new government ministries.
“It is not our intention to grow the number of ministries but to ensure that work is done in a more effective way to support the citizens of this country,” Jagdeo noted.
He also explained that the reorganisation planned will involve managing people’s workloads and using different tools, including digital tools, to guarantee efficiency.
