Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson has proposed a new incentive system that would allow individual tax centres to retain a percentage of the revenue they collect to motivate staff and enhance working conditions.<\/p>\n

The proposal was made during his visit to the Kinbu Tax Service Centre, part of his nationwide engagements with frontline revenue officers.<\/p>\n

Dr Forson said the initiative is aimed at boosting morale and strengthening the efficiency of Ghana\u2019s revenue administration.<\/p>\n

He explained that the retained funds \u201cwould be used by the specific tax centres to upgrade facilities and address the logistical and welfare needs of their staff\u201d.<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201ca motivated and well-resourced workforce is essential to delivering the level of revenue mobilisation the country urgently requires.<\/p>\n

Dr Forson also thanked the Kinbu team for their dedication and expressed confidence that, with the right motivation, Ghana\u2019s revenue performance can significantly improve.<\/p>\n

Chairman of the GRA Board, Kweku Ricketts-Hagan, welcomed the Minister\u2019s visit and reaffirmed the Board\u2019s commitment to retooling and reforming the authority while improving staff welfare across the country.<\/p>\n
