  What are they waiting for? They should get on with it and pass it quickly with all the amendments suggested.

  Mr Akoto Ampaw is one of the highly respected lawyers in this country,they should offen speak against the corruption going on in the country,even if nothing is done about it,a lease he ll be on records to ve spoken against it,many of them ve decided to operate in the quiet and it not helping the course of justice since they re the legal brains.This time a lot of distortions re going on in the media and governmental circles and they re the ones Ghanaians want to listen to,the current discussion on the date voting,is a constitutional matter that needs their input,the EC boss no doubt is confuse as a lawyer,not only that she has lost he sense of priorities and purpose and that can spell doom in the upcoming elections.But the risk is that we re all in a boat we re not sure of the one paddling it,if it sinks we sink with her so they should think for her legally since that's what she represents since her appointment,the only thing she has achieved is a logo and coursing financial lost to the state when she lost the case against the fisherman.

  It was during the presidency of Prof. Mills that the NDC cabinet approved and submitted the draft bill for Freedom of Information to parliament. For an unknown reason, parliament has been sitting on the said bill without passing it into law.
  At this stage, it will be fair for parliament to make the bill public for open discussion for a better law to be passed.
  Freedom of information law can go a long way to fight corruption in Ghana. It also make the work Anas Ameryaw and his Tiger Eye easier.
  More Ghanaians need to pile pressure on parliament to act on the RTI Bill.

  It is not every information generated by Gov't agencies that should be put out in the public domain.
  There should be a law as to who gets access to what information.
  Or there should be a procedure for applicants who want access to certain information to follow.
  Though the public may have right to the information, access to those information should be strongly regulated.
  Otherwise one morning, you could see long queues at a government departments made up of people who want some information by the agency. This is surely going to interfere with the normal daily business of the government agency or department.
  The clamour for undue request for information by any citizenry can be mitigated by who gets access to what information. Putting information meant for the general public on an Internet portal. And a law to create a procedure that an applicant must follow in a form of getting endorsement by or by being authenticated by a Senior Government Official before that information will be released.
