“I humbly plead that the amendment to the EOCO bill that is already before your office, you work and speed it up because that bill when passed will address many welfare concerns of EOCO,” she stated.
Meanwhile, the Deputy Attorney General, Alfred Tuah-Yeboah has pledged his office's commitment to securing the act's revision.
“We’ve noted concerns about your conditions of service and attempt to amend the EOCO Act. We give you the assurance that the office of the Attorney General and Ministry of Justice will push for the amendment of this act,” he said.
He further charged EOCO staff to work diligently and also exhibit professionalism in their line of duty.
