Full Details: KPMG Audit of SML-GRA Contract

The President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has released the KPMG audit of the SML deal with the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) after an Right to Information Act (RTI) request from the Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA). 

The President had earlier denied the Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA) the opportunity to access the report.

The President cited “The KPMG report comprises opinions, advice, deliberations, and recommendations that are integral to the President’s deliberative process and, therefore, qualifies as exempt information under section 5 (1) (a) and (b) (i) of the Right to Information (RTI) Act”.

However the Presidency in a U-turn indicated that, “in the interest of full transparency in governance, openness, and honesty with the public, has decided to waive the privilege under section 5 of the RTI Act and has directed the publication of the KPMG report in full.”
