Thu, 24 Mar 2011 Source: NCOGA

A five (5) member delegation of the Constitutional Review Commission of Ghana will be in New York, on Sunday, March 27th, 2011. The purpose of the visit is to enable the members of the Commission to meet with the Ghanaian Community as an integral part of its consultative process aimed at eliciting views to assist in enriching the formulation of the Constitution.

The delegation had already visited other European Countries and it is now the turn of New York. The mandate of the Constitution Review Commission is to:

1. Ascertain from the Ghanaian Diaspora

their views on the operations of the 1992 Fourth Republic

Constitution.

2. Articulate the concerns of the people of Ghana as regards

to the amendments that may be required for a comprehensive

review of the 1992 Constitution; and

3. Make recommendations to the Government for consideration

and provide a draft Bill for possible amendments to the 1992

Constitution.

VENUE: PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF GHANA

259-261, WEST 123 STREET,

NEW YORK, NY 100027

DATE: SUNDAY, MARCH 27, 2011

TIME: 5PM- 9PM

Even though the timing of the visit of the delegation conflicts with scheduled activities of most Ghanaian churches and associations, NCOGA urge everyone to make the time to attend this very important forum.
