Public institutions resistance, absence of L.I undermining RTI Act implementation -Transparency Int’l Ghana
Resistance by some public institutions to disclose information, weak enforcement mechanisms, and the absence of a Legislative Instrument (LI) are undermining the effective implementation of Ghana's Right to Information (RTI) Act, according to a new report by Transparency International Ghana.
According to the report, one of the biggest obstacles to the effective implementation of the law is the continued reluctance of some public institutions to release information requested under the Act.
The report is expected to reignite discussions on strengthening Ghana's transparency and accountability framework by addressing the legal and institutional bottlenecks hindering the full implementation of the Right to Information Act.
