The Executive Director of the African Center for Parliamentary Journalism and Research, Harrison Kofi Belley, has said the decision by the Public Accounts Committee of parliament to merely surcharge absentee ministers is not punitive enough.
Speaking to Dzifa Bampoh on 3FM on Friday June 25, he said the “no show” by the absentee ministers of state and the Committee’s decision to surcharge was all but a let off and that the measure was not deterrent enough to others.
“I think it is even on the minimal side to surcharge them. It should have been something that the ministers should have suffered themselves not the state because surcharging them means that the ministries are going to pay.
