Such consultations target all sectors, both public and private.”Project Officer: Eshwar Raghunath According to the GNBS, although the Draft Tobacco Standard was finalised as a Voluntary National Standard in August,Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Mens Trainers, 2009, the standardisation process requires that further steps be taken before the Standard is submitted to the Minister of Tourism, who also must ensure that all requirements are fulfilled before the standard is submitted to Cabinet for approval.The GNBS also noted that there was no communication between the Guyana Chest Society and Mr. Raghunath of the Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce.The GNBS denied that the private sector was given another chance to comment on the standard in keeping with the request from the Tourism Minister.“The GNBS is not aware of any new amendments required of the standard. The Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce and the GNBS, are aware of the importance of making the said standard mandatory and understand the urgent need for Guyana to satisfy the requirements of the Framework Convention for Tobacco Control (FCTC) to which Guyana is a signatory.Due process however must be followed to ensure full transparency.”In 2005, Guyana signed onto the World Health Organisation (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), where there are several articles within that treaty that addresses the control of tobacco as well as its demand and supply.Since then, Governments had three years to implement the various principles of the treaty but Guyana is in breach of Article 11, which deals specifically with the packaging and labeling of tobacco products.This article demands that governments implement pictorial health warnings on cigarette packages, but to date,Jordan Shoes For Sale, this is still to be done in Guyana.
