It will\u00a0address the financial difficulties\u00a0facing NADMO because Parliament is expected\u00a0to approve a percentage of the national revenue into a National Disaster Management Fund to enhance the operations of NADMO.<\/p>\n<p>He expressed concern about the collapse of buildings in recent times, especially in Accra, and attributed them to lack of proper supervision by the authorities and that under\u00a0the bill, NADMO would have powers to permit or disallow the construction of a building.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Boakye said\u00a0the Region was doing well in terms of disaster management and\u00a0in 2013\u00a0his outfit was able to organize sensitization workshop to educate some communities on disaster prevention.<\/p>\n<p>He said with the support of UNICEF, his outfit was able to organize a sensitization radio talk show on some of the local radio stations in the region and also had support from district assemblies in the region to organize capacity building workshops for their personnel on new ways and strategies of managing disasters.<\/p>\n<p>He said in spite of the efforts of his organization, illegal mining popularly known as \u2018galamsey\u2019 continues to be a major challenge for the region and called on\u00a0 traditional authorities, land owners and all stakeholders to join hands with NADMO to flush out the illegal miners before they cause further damage to the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Boakye expressed appreciation for the immense contributions of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to the activities of his outfit.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: GNA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Eastern Regional Coordinator of the National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO), Mr Ransford Boakye has appealed to parliament to expedite action on the passage of the National Disaster Management Service Bill.
