The acting Director General of the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA), Brigadier General Paul Siedu Tanye-Kulono, has appealed to government to consider the removal of the COVID-19 and Value Added Tax (VAT) on transit cargoes to boost business and promote efficiency at the ports.
According to him, the imposition of these taxes served as disincentive to transit business and increased the cost of doing business in the country.
Brig-Gen.
made the appeal when he welcomed the Minister of Transport, Joseph Bukari Nikpe, to his office last Wednesday as part of his working tour to the GPHA.
