The Board Chairman of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), Joe Gartey, has revealed that the authority has met its mid-year target for 2024 and also done the same with its VAT digital enrollment of 600 businesses.
Speaking at a familiarisation meeting with the leadership of the Methodist Church Ghana, the Board Chairman of the GRA explained that despite the limited time available to the government and the daunting demands imposed by the IMF conditions, the GRA will endeavour to dutifully deliver on its mandate to ensure the necessary revenue targets for the year are met.
In January, February, and March, the figures did not look good. And we had a target to meet, not just because the IMF said we should meet the target, but because we as Ghanaians…we cannot develop based on loans and grants and that we have to raise our revenue. We have to be able to pay taxes so we can demand accountability from our government.”
The Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church Ghana, Most Rev. Dr. Paul Boafo, charged Christians to pay their taxes towards the development of the country.
He promised to use the church as a platform to educate members of the church on fulfilling their tax obligations.
The Commissioner General of the Ghana Revenue Authority, Julie Essiam, who was also present at the event, expressed confidence that, with a new board and management in place, the Ghana Revenue Authority will exceed its 2024 target.
