  • The Role of the Supreme Court in the Development of Constitutional Law in Ghana
    THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA i THE ROLE OF THE SUPREME COURT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONSTITUTIONAL LAW IN GHANA by SETH YEBOA BIMPONG-BUTA Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LAW – LLD at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER PROFESSOR B P WANDA 1 February 2005 ii ABSTRACT The Theme running through this Dissertation is intended to prove that the Supreme Court has a role to play in the promotion, enforcement and sustenance of a proper democratic system of government, good governance and fundamental human rights and freedoms in Ghana. The Study would therefore address the role of the Supreme Court in the development of Constitutional Law in Ghana, with particular emphasis on the court’s contribution to the underlying concepts of the Fourth Republican Constitution of 1992; the guiding principles of constitutional interpretation and the vexed issue of whether the court should adopt a mechanical and literal approach to the interpretation of the Constitution or adopt a liberal, beneficent and purposive approach. The Supreme Court has asserted in the locus classicus decision: Tuffuor v Attorney-General [1980] GLR 637 that the 1979 Constitution as the supreme law, must be construed as a living political document capable of growth. Is there any evidence now to support that claim? The study shall also investigate the question of the power of the Supreme Court to review legislative and executive action. We shall also examine the role of the Supreme Court in the interpretation and enforcement of the Constitution and Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms in relation to the rights and obligations of the individual and the State with the view to achieving good governance.

Grantee organization: Ghana Wildlife Society 2. Grant title: Mainstreaming Site-Scale Ecosystem Values into Local Decision-Making in Ghana 3. Grant number: 100805 4. Grant amount (US dollars): 99,328.35 5. Proposed dates of grant: 1st August, 2017 – 31st January, 2019 6. Countries or territories where project will be undertaken: Ghana. 7. Date of preparation of this document: 28th May, 2017 8. Introduction: Information on the physical changes to forest ecosystems and the socio-economic consequences that might result from alternative land uses i.e. the "costs and benefits" of those changes is not well developed among local government agencies, the Forestry Commission and private sector actors. Moreover, some decision-makers are more likely to support ecosystem conservation for socio-economic reasons, rather than for the intrinsic value of biodiversity and associated ethical reasons. Although some of the ecosystem services are well known to include food, fuel, fibre and provision of cultural services, that provide benefits to people through recreation and cultural appreciation of nature, other services provided by the three KBAs selected for the project are not so well known. These include the regulation of the climate, purification of air and water and flood protection, soil formation and nutrient cycling. Hence, the case for conservation can be made more compelling for the afore-mentioned audience if the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem services and the value of ecosystem services provided by key biodiversity areas (sites) are better understood.
