The Governor of Plateau state, Simon Lalong, has assented the law establishing Plateau State contributory Health care management Agency and three other bills.

The Plateau State House of Assembly, had recently passed four bills including Plateau State Specialist Hospital bill, Plateau State Contributory Health Care Management Agency, the Plateau State Energy Cooperation bill and the Water sector bill.

In a press release signed Wednesday, by Deputy Director, Press and Public Affairs, Solomon John Gujor, Lalong said his ‘rescue’ administration is poised to take the limitless opportunity  that abounds in to develop all the sectors of the economy in the state.

“These four laws would go a long way to bridge the gap created by the absence of the enabling laws guiding the operations of the relevant agencies as they would also reduce the hardship faced by the citizens of the state as they go about attending to their daily needs,” he said.

He thanked members of the Plateau state House of Assembly for the speedy deliberation and of the bills despite their tight schedules.
