Question 40256 — overseas

Summary

Mr. Lénaïck Adam alerts the Minister Delegate to the Minister of National Education, Youth and Sports, responsible for sports, to the problems encountered by Guyanese athletes coming to compete in France, taking into account the strict health protocol put in place for Guyanese people. He was recently contacted by the Guyana Football League regarding a request for an exceptional trip to the United States. of America as part of an international football competition, the Gold Cup 2021. Indeed, this type of travel was not considered a compelling reason by the prefecture of Guyana. After referral to the Ministry of Sports, the prefecture of Guyana ruled in favor of athletes from Guyana, deciding to authorize travel within the framework of sports competitions, henceforth considering that this was a compelling reason. By Elsewhere, he was then alerted by the U17 fencing team from Guyana which was ordered to quarantine, ranging from 7 to 10 days depending on the athletes' vaccination schedule, once it arrived in France as part of its trip to the French championship. This situation is not tenable for sports organizations in Guyana. Indeed, the quarantine imposed on athletes before their competition not only involves remarkable organization for athletes who, often, have a salaried job, but above all the advance of staggering costs by their sports organization. However, the state of health emergency, still in force in Guyana, requires a strict protocol during each training of athletes, especially since their gatherings take place only behind closed doors in order to limit interactions with potential carriers of the virus. Furthermore, the Guyana is a French territory. In this sense, there should not be so many restrictions on the arrival of athletes in France. This greatly prevents the smooth running of their competition, despite the presentation of their negative RT-PCR test carried out less than 48 hours before the flight as well as a negative antigen test after the flight. So, he asks her if she will reconsider this protocol seriously, in which case it would deprive her of unfair way for all of Guyana to represent sports nationally and internationally.
