Ing. Dr Nana Ato Arthur, Head of Local Government Service said there is the need for local authorities to constantly engage and dialogue with stakeholders through every available avenue to engender trust and confidence. He said it was important to draw stakeholders’ attention to the mandate of Regional Coordinating Councils (RCCs) which appears to be very limited, given modern day dynamics of Local government administration. Dr Ato Arthur said this at the maiden conference of Regional Minister, Regional Chief and Coordinating Directors and Deans’ of the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chiefs from the various regions. The two-day conference, which is on the theme: “Deepening Decentralisation and Local Governance for Accelerated Development in Ghana: The Role of Key Stakeholders,” is to take the participants through Ghana’s Decentralisation policy document and how to achieve the document targeted goals.
