Controller and Accountant-General to
suspend deductions from workers' salaries
Accra, Oct. 3, Ghanadot/GNA- The Controller and Accountant
General's Department (CAGD), has decided to suspend with
immediate effect certain deductions from salaries of
workers, which have triggered complaints.
In a statement issued in Accra, CAGD said the deductions
would be suspended while investigations were conducted to
determine the cause of the problem.
It said the deductions were for overpayment of loan
recovery, tax on arrears and tax in arrears.
The statement said, "Meanwhile, workers are assured that any
wrongful deductions would be refunded without delay."
CAGD said the problem occurred as a result of efforts to
"correct certain discrepancies in the salaries of some
government employees."
Workers on government payroll have for several weeks
complained about the deductions.
