Representatives from Guyana met with representatives of several countries to share experiences and offer insight.Guyana’s KPCS system is subjected to constant review in – house by GGMC, and as recently as May, GGMC met with exporters to discuss concerns and make adjustments where any may be possible or prudent.It is recognized that there will be concerns raised from time to time with respect to possible cross – border movement of minerals (which may include rough diamonds), in particular among Guyana,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Brazil and Venezuela.  It is also,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, however, important to bear in mind that smuggling must first be established and not be speculated on.  GGMC jurisdictionally deals with the movement of minerals from operation (source) to point of export,NFL Cheap Jerseys China, and collaboratively with GRA /CTA, certifying rough diamonds for export without which certification such diamonds would not be accepted at the proposed destination.   To date there has been no evidence provided which categorically demonstrates illicit movement.  Pursuant to standard procedures,Cheap Jerseys From China, rough diamonds which do not accord with Guyana’s well – documented and researched mineralogy and characteristics and for which documentation is unsatisfactory,Cheap Jerseys Free, are not sanctioned and certified for export. This approach is consistent and exporters who have not been compliant have received appropriate sanctions, and some have since ceased to conduct business, with KPCS being informed through reporting requirements.In due course and not distant future, Guyana will be requesting its second peer review and will expect to be accommodated as the KPCS schedule allows.Guyana has never shirked its responsibility with respect to the KPCS and will continue to honour its obligations.Your accommodation of this response with equal prominence is looked forward to.Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment& Guyana Geology and Mines Commission
