The appointments committee, on Monday March 8, 2021, will begin vetting for Minister-designate of Finance, Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta.
This follows the rearrangement of his vetting schedule, which was originally scheduled for Tuesday, February 16, 2021 at the request of Mr. Ofori-Atta.
On Sunday, February 14, 2021, Mr. Ofori-Atta had flew to the United States of America to undergo post- Covid-19 treatment.
“After recovering from COVID-19 last December, Mr. Ofori-Atta has had medical complications, which doctors advise require further interventions not currently available in Ghana,” a statement from the Ministry of Finance said on Valentine’s Day.
“The Ministry of Finance wishes to inform the general public and stakeholders that Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta, the Representative of the President at the Ministry of Finance and Minister-designate of Finance, will travel to the United States of America today, for a special medical review.
“The leadership of Parliament has been duly notified for a new date to be fixed upon his return,” the statement noted.
Meanwhile, the vetting of some Ministers-designate initially scheduled to take place on Monday, February 22, 2021, has been rescheduled to Tuesday, February 23, 2021.
According to a communique from the Appointments Committee, this is to enable the Chairman of the Committee to submit a report on Ministers-designate that have been vetted so far.
Tuesday’s vetting will, therefore, have Ministers-designate of Public Enterprises, Transport, and Sanitation Resources, Joseph Cudjoe, Kwaku Ofori Asiamah and Cecilia Dapaah, respectively appear before the Appointments committee.
