Mr. Cassell said they hope the equipment would help continue the journey of strengthening work related to child labour.<\/p>\n<p>Nyallow Barrow, Commissioner of Labour at the Department of Labour thanked UNICEF on behalf of the department for the equipment he said, they badly needed. He added that the generosity was not first of its kind, saying they would make best use of the donated equipment to ensure the child unit is strengthened.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the unit was dormant but since UNICEF started supporting them three years ago, there is a lot of improvement. Mr. Barrow also assured donors that they will put the equipment into good use, adding that, their plan is to open offices across the country to combat child labour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
