The team paid close attention to the infrastructure of the settlement, including the maximum security area, a workshop and the staff quarters.  The visit is part of Government’s Assessment of all the GPS facilities to determine current physical and human resource capacity so that informed decisions can be made on how best to improve the way the service functions.President Granger referred to the visit as an important fact finding and problem solving mission and assured the staff and officials present at a briefing meeting, held before the tour of the facility, that problems within the GPS will be resolved within the limit of the country’s resources and to the best of the Government’s ability.Referencing what is now Guyana’s worst prison riot in history, where 17 inmates lost their lives at the Georgetown Prison last week, the President noted that the prison service has had problems that are endemic that must be solved. “Our presence here is not just a gut reaction.  It is a plan to ensure that there is a long term strategy.  We are ensuring that the Guyana Prison Service fulfills its mandate.  We have to build a system in which persons who enter this service as inmates would have the best opportunities for rehabilitation and those who are incorrigible… would be prevented from bringing harm to society,” the President said.The Head of State added that if these changes had been made over time, then the tragedy that occurred in Georgetown may not have happened.  He said, “What occurred in Georgetown ought not to have occurred had improvements been introduced to the Guyana Prison Service over a period of time… Some of the measures, which could have corrected or could have prevented the events of last week were not implemented.”President David Granger and team enter the High Security level of the Mazaruni Prison during yesterday’s tour.Upon his arrival at the 173 year old penitentiary, the Head of State was presented with a thorough brief by Officer in Charge (OC), Mr. Alexander Hopkinson on the inner workings of the facility as well as the administrative and other challenges that are being faced on a daily basis.
