Energy Sector Report Missing From Parliament
Ghana's Finance and Energy Ministers have not submitted the annual report for the Energy Sector Support Account, a requirement under the Energy Sector Levies Act, 2025. The report was due on March 31, 2026. This delay raises concerns about transparency and accountability in the management of funds intended to stabilize the energy sector.
A Member of Parliament for Afigya Kwabre North, Collins Adomako-Mensah, has highlighted that the annual report on the Energy Sector Support Account has not been presented to Parliament. This report is legally required by the Energy Sector Levies Act, 2025.
The deadline for submission was March 31, 2026. The delay means that Parliament and the public do not have updated information on how funds collected under the Energy Sector Shortfall and Debt Repayment Levy are being used.
This levy is crucial for stabilizing the energy sector and helping it grow sustainably. The law ensures funds are used effectively and builds public trust. Failing to submit the report on time affects transparency and accountability in the handling of these important public funds.
