Policy Analyst, Dr Steve Manteaw, has expressed his reservations about the Fuel Tax introduced by the government.
According to him, although it is well-intended, it lacks a strong accountability mechanism.
He is of the view that the lack of an accountability mechanism exposes it to potential abuse, including misapplication.
He foresees this introduction adversely affecting transport fares and food prices and undermining the government's call on traders to reduce prices.
