The District Composite Budgeting system would achieve the following amongst others: Establish an effective integrated budgeting system which supports intended goals, expectation and performance of government; Deepen the uniform approach to planning, budgeting, auditing, monitoring, evaluation and financial reporting; Facilitate harmonized development and introduce fiscal prudence in the management of public funds at the MMDA level. Establish total inflow and outflow of resources at the MMDA level. Facilitate holistic development of the MMDA. 2. In 2011, Government directed all Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to commence the preparation of composite budget.

  • Tema Metropolitan
    TEMA METROPOLITAN i Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Tema Metropolitan is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions.

The findings in this report are based on bi-weekly field reports submitted by CODEO’s Long Term Observers (CODEO LTOs) deployed in 134 out of the 138 constituencies randomly selected from the 10 regions of Ghana.

Four key policy priority issues: education, unemployment, health and corruption dominated political party campaigns in the constituencies. The National Democratic Congress (NDC) leads as the party that featured women and Persons with Disability (PWDs) as the leading speakers on their campaign platform followed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), the Convention People’s Party (CPP) and Progressive People’s Party (PPP).

  • CWB Msc Thesis
    MSc Hydrogeology: Thesis University of Birmingham Rebecca Esther Carmel Simister URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT: USING THE CITY WATER BALANCE MODEL TO MODEL URBAN WATER SYSTEMS IN ACCRA, GHANA i Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for an MSc in Hydrogeology in the School of Earth Sciences, University of Birmingham in September 2010. Student: Supervisor: ii ABSTRACT: The use of a scoping model to quantify the movement of water within urban water and waste water systems to the underlying aquifer has been applied to Accra, Ghana. Currently, only 55% of Accra has access to mains water, with water shortages and intermittent water connection to households becoming more common (AVRL 2010). In 2007 Accra became part of the SWITCH project as a demonstration city, which means that it promotes and undertakes on research into sustainable urban water systems. The City Water Balance (CWB) package has been developed by SWITCH to assess the impacts of future water management options in the city on recharge and the urban water cycle. The implementation of different water and waste water management options can be tested in the model to find more appropriate and sustainable water use improvements on a variety of spatial and temporal scales. A model has been successfully developed and calibrated, within the available limits, for the Accra Metropolitan Area that quantifies the inputs, processes and outputs of water within the urban water cycle. In this study, three different population scenarios for Accra in 2030 were tested along with five different water management options for present day city. The population scenarios showed that the imported water might reach up to three times the imported water volume at present, prompting the need for implementing more sustainable water practices in the future.

  • Ningo-Prampram Municipality
    NINGO-PRAMPRAM MUNICIPALITY Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Ningo-Prampram Municipality is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Election Security and Violence in Ghana: the Case of Ayawaso West Wougon and Talensi By-Elections
    Election Security and Violence in Ghana: The case of Ayawaso West Wougon and Talensi By-Elections Abstract Conducts of by-elections in recent times have been fraught with a lot of security challenges. This is as a result of the violence that characterized the conduct of by-elections recent times in Ghana. Violence during by-elections in Ghana plays a vital role in securing election victories for political parties. In all the by-elections characterized by violence in Ghana, they were won by parties that were accused of inciting the violence. The main tenets of election violence as identified by the paper include, actors, motives, timing, consequences, and patterns. The paper reveals that there is a correlation between violence during by-elections and victories of incumbent parties. This is because, in the two by-elections understudy, those accused of starting the violence and using national security operatives won the elections. The paper also found out that by-election violence impacts negatively on Ghana’s democratic maturity in several ways, such as; low voter turnout, weakening of democratic foundation and breeding an atmosphere of insecurity. Finally, the paper also revealed that political parties especially those in government resort to violence during by-elections in Ghana because they fear losing it will mean the government is underperforming as argued out by Feigert and Norris and also because they want to add to their tally in parliament. Keywords: Election security, election violence, by-elections, Ghana 1 Introduction Elections undisputedly have become the most significant and popular tool through which political office holders are selected across the globe.
