President Nana Akufo-Addo has appointed the former Member of Parliament for Tema West Constituency, Irene Naa Torshie Addo, as the new administrator for the District Assembly Common Fund<\/a><\/strong><\/span> (DACF).<\/p>\n

This was contained in a letter addressed to the Speaker of Parliament, Prof. Aaron Mike Oquaye, to get her approved through the due parliamentary procedure.<\/p>\n

Naa Torshie Addo, if approved, will replace Kojo Fynn, the former administrator who was relieved of his post by President Akufo-Addo earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The District Assemblies\u2019 Common Fund is a pool of resources created under Article 252 of the 1992 constitution of Ghana. The pool is provided with at least 5% of the national revenue, set aside to be shared among all District Assemblies in Ghana with a formula approved by Parliament.<\/p>\n

Although the constitution does not state explicitly that allocations from the fund be made to MPs or regional coordinating councils, the country currently allocates a fraction of the fund to MPs and Regional Coordinating Councils.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile,\u00a0the Speaker of Parliament has referred the nomination to the Appointments Committee for consideration and a report to be issued later.<\/p>\n
