The Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana (CLOGSAG), has asked the Ministry of Finance to relinquish its supervisory role over the Social Security and National Insurance Trust ( SSNIT).
The association said it would be compelled to take legal action against the ministry if it failed to renounce the role.
Speaking at a thanksgiving service organised by CLOGSAG in Accra last Saturday to mark May Day, the Executive Secretary of the Association, Mr Isaac Bampoe-Addo, said investigations by the association revealed that SSNIT had been placed under the Financial Service Division of the Ministry of Finance.
However, the National Pensions Act, 2008 (Act 766), clearly indicated that the Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations was rather in charge of pensions in the country and, therefore, must play the supervisory role over SSNIT.
