$6.7m Spent On Constitution Review

The Constitution Review Commission says it spent $ 6. 3m including logistics support from the government before coming out with its report.

Addressing journalists at the Castle after presenting the report to President Mills, the Executive Secretary of the Commission, Dr Raymond Atuguba said it received a budget of $ 2.7m from government.


This he explained had to be increased to enable it to expand the consultative processes by including Ghanaians in the Diaspora.

He said the figure still remains the lowest if compared to constitutional amendment processes in other African countries.


Meanwhile, the Chairman of the Commission Professor, Albert Fiadjoe has called on the media to play a pivotal role in making sure that the nation carries out an honest, transparent and non-political discourse on the recommendations in the report when the government makes it public.
