TUC clarifies threat of ‘legal action’ over ECG privatisation

The Trades Union Congress (TUC) has clarified that its threat to use all “legal action” to oppose the proposed private sector participation (PSP) in the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) does not necessarily mean taking the government to court.

His comments come amid growing disagreement between the TUC and government over the proposed private sector participation in ECG, with the union maintaining that the arrangement amounts to privatisation and vowed to use legal action to block World Bank-backed ECG privatisation.

Deputy Secretary-General of the TUC, Dr Kwabena Nyarko Otoo, says the union’s reference to legal action includes traditional industrial relations tools available to organised labour.
