The Independent

Reporting on the latest auditor generals report, which the Independent said is already in the domain of the Speaker of Parliament, the paper under the headline; “Ghost Workers in Parliament” says, according to the Auditor Generals report, salaries of 109 staff members of the House were duplicated for various months resulting in overpayment of 119.5 million cedis as of May 1998.

The paper says although most of the names had been deleted by May 31, 1998, the Auditor General contended that nine staff members continued to receive double salary.

The report also made revelation of 4.6 billion cedis non-recovery of MPs’ car loans. In July last year an amount of 4.6 billion cedis was released for the payment of motor vehicle loans to 162 members of Parliament. The loans together with a two per cent interest are to be recovered from MPs emoluments during their term in Parliament and any outstanding balance to off-set their ex-gratia awards, the paper said.
