The National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE), has lamented\u00a0the lack of adequate\u00a0office space as well as\u00a0permanent offices to operate in, saying the situation is affecting its output.<\/p>\n
The NCCE\u2019s Director of Finance, Michael Dadzie, bemoaned the fact that since its inception in 1993, the Commission has been sharing offices with the Electoral Commission (EC) as it carries out its constitutional mandate.<\/p>\n
Testifying before the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament (PAC) on Wednesday, Mr. Dadzie said, \u201cEver since the institution came into being, NCCE has never been given an office. We have been squatting in the Electoral Commission’s office in 12 rooms and it is having a serious impact on our activities.\u201d<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”4IwgBzbCUumiP0kdbyc4TwwhWEOqaE4K”]The situation affects safe keeping and handling of the commission’s documents, according to Mr. Dadzie.<\/p>\n
\u201c… taking stock is a problem. If you come to our human resource, all the files are on the floor because we don\u2019t have a place to pack them,\u201d he lamented.<\/p>\n
He further called on the Water Resources,\u00a0Works, and Housing Ministry, to intervene in the situation and \u201cget us a place to do our work\u201d.<\/p>\n
