The Finance Minister, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson on Thursday, March 13, presented eight bills to Parliament aimed at abolishing several taxes, including the Electronic Transaction Levy (E-Levy), the betting tax, amongst others.
The bills also seek to uncap statutory funds such as the National Health Insurance Levy (NHIL) and the GETFund levy.
These proposed tax repeals and amendments align with the National Democratic Congress's (NDC) manifesto pledge to ease the financial burden on Ghanaians.
