Article 71 of the Fourth Republican Constitution, which can hilariously be known as the "animal ranch" arrangement of the constitution, depletes the monetary assets of Ghana. It offers an implied chance to the three arms of government and others to unduly compensate themselves.
It is monetarily inefficient to proceed with the execution of Article 71 when there are obvious signs of it deteriorating the monetary and social disparity circumstances in the country. The said Article is expanding the compensation bill in a useless way.
The financial circumstance, and the degree of improvement of the country at the time this regulation was made demonstrate a lost need. The expectations for instituting such a regulation that puts extreme costs on the state are muddled. A country that has impractical public obligations, challenges with its wellbeing and instructive area can't stand to unwarrantedly reward a portion of its workers.
Aside from a couple of others, Article 71 office holders are representatives of the President. The Constitution of Ghana in Article 70 enables the President to select some Article 71 office holders. Permitting the President, through a council to decide the recompenses and honors of the Article 71 office holders is an exemplary instance of a President deciding the pay rates, stipends and honors of his representatives: a large number of the Article 71 office holders are deputies of the President.
The Fair Wages and Salaries Commission ought to have been vested with abilities to decide the public help pay strategy for Ghana no matter what to Article 71 office holders. To standard the public assistance pay framework and compensation structure, the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission can be entrusted to examination into the compensation designs and pay frameworks for people openly administration somewhere else on the planet and educate the public authority on the execution concerning its discoveries and proposals.
To do this, the Act which made the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission ought to be changed for it to have the power to decide and carry out open help pay strategy for all people inside the public assistance.
