The Government Printing Department


The Government Printing Department is headed by Mrs. Adell Gay, Chief Superintendent and is located in the area of the Industrial Park, off Soldier Road. The staff complement consists of thirty-five persons who provide printing services to all Government Ministries/Departments and Corporations. The Department is responsible for printing all Government official documents, Gazettes, programmes for national events, and funeral programmes on the death of Government officials.  

In December 2008, a new costing project was implemented, which requires each Ministry and Corporation to cover the minimum cost of printing production, namely the purchasing of paper and ink. The Government Printing Department is fully equipped to handle any print job with their state-of-the-art equipment which  include the DC 5000 Digital Printing Press, the Horizon Collator, a large guillotine, two 9500 HP Printers, two  4700 HP Printers, and a Stahl folder  machine for folding documents.  There is also a computer-to-plate machine, which allows the technician to send a print job directly to plate, which minimizes the manual process.  The Government Printing Department is also fully equipped to print banners and business cards.  Its staff members are well trained in layout of graphics, proof reading and graphics design.
