Galamsey fight: Government to roll out 6-point action plan – Labour Relations Minister

Government is set to roll out a six-point action plan in line with the fight against galamsey.

This is contained in an undated letter by the Minister for Employment and Labour Relations, Mr Ignatius Baffuor Awuah to the Trades Union Congress (TUC) sighted by 3news.

Parts of the letter, which was purportedly written after the meeting between President Akufo-Addo and members of Organised Labour read as follows: That government will collaborate with Organized Labour and other stakeholders in the fight against illegal mining.

That government will take steps when Parliament reconvenes this month to revoke the Environmental Protection (Mining in Forest Reserves) Regulations, 2023 (LI 2462).
