The Deputy Eastern Regional Minister, Mr Gustav Narh-Dometey at the weekend warned public officials that the days of embezzlement and under-invoicing in the public sector are over.

He said the Government's policy of "zero tolerance for corruption" would be vigorously pursued to purge malfeasance.

Mr Narh-Dometey gave the warning at the closing ceremony of a three-day National Conference of Revenue Superintendents, Regional Stool Lands Officers and Regional Accountants of the office of the Administrator of Stool Lands at Bunso on Friday.

He urged the participants to help mobilise adequate revenue to improve the living standards of Ghanaians.

Mrs Matilda Fiadzigbey, the Administrator of Stool Lands expressed the hope that the knowledge acquired would help to improve their efficiency.

She said by the end of the year, an office would be established at Tamale to take care for the three Northern Regions.

Mrs Fiadzigbey said arrangements are also underway to open district offices at Hohoe, Nkwanta, Jasikan and Kadjebi in the Volta Region.
