Minister of Finance, Dr Mohammed Amin Adam, has urged the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) to work with his outfit to exceed the GH¢145 billion targeted outlined in the 2024 budget.

He further said critical infrastructure projects needs to be completed.

“I expect that we work together, through a structured framework, to exceed the GH¢145 billion target outlined in the 2024 budget. Quite sincerely, we need to urgently agree on a roadmap to enable us to exceed the revenue target and meet pressing needs, including completing critical infrastructure,” he said.

Dr Amin Adam noted that government will soon roll out an E-VAT mechanism to boost revenue mobilization.

The move, he said, was to give taxpayers a great experience.

The Minister of Finance said this when he paid a working visit to the Ghana Revenue Authority on Monday, February 19, 2024.
