The government has been called upon to ensure that every Tanzanian is well informed on the pros and cones of the ongoing oil and gas exploration and development. This is one of the policy recommendations based on the Tanzania oil and gas status study report, Publish What You Pay (PWYP) presented by the Tanzania Coalition to the Members of Parliament in Dodoma last week.

A statement issued by the Coalition yesterday in Dar es Salaam said the report makes eight policy recommendations derived from the analyses of the study findings.

The country is recognised as having high hydrocarbons potential, nine gas fields are confirmed and the nation is not stopping short of finally putting an end to its power shortage nightmares.
