Minority calls for medium-term plan to clear GH¢7bn DACF arrears

Audio By Carbonatix

The Minority has called for a structured medium-term liquidation plan to address DACF arrears estimated at over GH¢7 billion.

According to Mr Annoh-Dompreh, clearing the backlog requires more than rhetorical assurances.

He proposed an independent slot deposit pulsa audit by the Auditor-General to verify arrears from 2014 to date and publish a certified arrears stock.

“Arrears must be quantified transparently before they can be resolved credibly,” he said.

He further recommended a three-to-five-year amortisation plan, with a fixed percentage of annual revenue growth ring-fenced specifically for arrears clearance.

He insisted that arrears payments should not be reclassified as current-year compliance.

“Repaying old debt is not the same as meeting current constitutional obligations,” he emphasised.

The Minority also proposed statutory prohibitions against rolling arrears beyond a single fiscal year, warning that perpetual backlog weakens fiscal credibility and district-level planning.
