Implementation

Reacting to how the agency can implement the policy in the face of current economic challenges, and the freeze on public sector employment, Director of Corporate Affairs of the YEA, Emmanuel Kwasi Afriyie said, they are hopeful to get approval from Parliament.

“We have statutory deductions from the GETFund, Communication Service tax and others, which we use to fund our projects. All of these go through approval from our parent ministry, the Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations, the Ministry of Finance, and Parliament. So, these are the sources we are looking forward to Parliament approving for us,” he clarified.

Addressing the parade, the Director General of the National Police Training School, Chief Superintendent Samuel Asiedu Okantah, cautioned the recruits against unethical attitudes in the course of duty.

“Graduating CPA personnel are entreated to be disciplined at all times, and endeavour to be civil in your dealings with the public. It may be imperative to state that the Police systems are such that, it will reject you if you dare desire for instant gratification. You are granted the authority to assist Police personnel to enforce the laws, hence, you are obliged to comply with the very laws you are to assist Police to enforce,” Mr. Okantah said.
