Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson is advocating for new legislation. This law would clarify which government funds can be frozen by court orders.
Dr Forson stated that this measure is necessary to safeguard emergency resources. These funds are vital for responding to national crises.
He expressed concern that current practices could make these essential funds unavailable when needed most.
The Minister made these remarks following his presentation of the Mid-Year Budget to Parliament.
He explained that the ability to access these funds quickly is crucial for national security and stability.
The proposed law aims to create a clear distinction between funds that can be subject to freezing and those that must remain accessible for public service.
This initiative seeks to prevent disruptions to government operations during critical times.
Further details on the proposed legislation are expected to be released.
