Governing Boards of Government, Organizations and
Parastatals dissolved
Accra, Jan. 27, Ghanadot/GNA - President John
Evans Atta Mills has decided to reconstitute the membership
of all Governing Boards of Government Organizations and
Parastatals.
Accordingly, all such Boards are dissolved with immediate
effect.
A statement signed by Mr Mahama Ayariga, Presidential
Spokesperson on Tuesday further directed that all
appointments, promotions, re-designations, transfers, and
re-assignments recently made by such Boards will not take
effect until the new Boards are in place and have reviewed
them.
It said the Government nominees on the Boards of Directors
of Companies in which Government has shares have also been
withdrawn. Their replacements will be made in due course.
The statement said it is a matter of concern to President
that some Boards Directors, in the last few weeks have been
rushing through certain critical decisions in anticipation
of their dissolution.
It explained that some of these decisions have even involved
awarding to themselves bonuses and other monetary payments
above reasonable levels.
The statement said the President decided that the
implementation of all such decisions are to be suspended and
will be-reviewed by the new Boards as soon as they are
constituted.
“It is expected that all concerned shall ensure strict
compliance. Chief Directors of the sectors are to monitor
and report on compliance with the above directives,” the
statement added.
