A Development Economist, Dr George Domfeh has told the Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson that he should have kept the E-ley.
Rather than removing it entirely, he said, the Minister could have reduced the rate. "E-levy should not have been removed.
Economically they should have done something about it, if the 1per cent is high they could have reduced it," he said on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday, March 15.
Also commenting on the same show, an economics lecturer at the University of Ghana, Dr Adu Owusu Sarkodie told the Finance Minister to keep the Covid Levy.
