Minister-designate for Finance Ken Ofori-Atta has written to the Chairman of the Appointments Committee of Parliament to reschedule his vetting on health grounds.
The vetting was originally slated for Monday, February 15, 2021.
However, in a letter dated February 14, 2021 and addressed to the Chairman of the Appointments Committee of Parliament, Mr Ofori-Atta made reference to the committee’s letter dated February 1, 2021, inviting him to appear before the committee, and informed them of his inability to honour the invitation.
Portions of the letter reads; “I will travel to the United States of America to undergo a required medical intervention currently not available in Ghana. I am expected to be away for two weeks.
“Therefore, I kindly request your direction on arranging a new date for my appearance before the committee.
“The Ministry of Finance is available to discuss the necessary consequential processes to arrange an alternative date.”
