Ghana Africa GOVERNMENT The 1993 constitution that established the Fourth Republic provided a basic charter for the republican democratic government. It declares Ghana to be a unitary republic with sovereignty residing in the Ghanaian people. Intended to prevent future coups, dictatorial government, and one-party states, it is designed to establish the concept of power sharing. The document reflects lessons learned from the abrogated constitutions of 1957, 1960, 1969, and 1979, and incorporates provisions and institutions drawn from British and American constitutional models. One controversial provision of the constitution indemnifies members and appointees of the PNDC from liability for any official act or omission during the years of PNDC rule. The constitution calls for a system of checks and balances, with power shared between a president, a unicameral parliament, an advisory Council of State, and an independent judiciary. Executive authority is established in the Office of the Presidency, together with his Council of State. The president is head of state, head of government, and commander in chief of the armed forces. He also appoints the vice president. According to the constitution, more than half of the presidential-appointed ministers of state must be appointed from among members of Parliament. Legislative functions are vested in Parliament, which consists of a unicameral 230-member body plus the Speaker. In practice, legislative powers are highly constrained by Article 108 of the constitution, which prohibits Parliament from initiating any bill that has financial implications. To become law, legislation must have the assent of the president, who has a qualified veto over all bills except those to which a vote of urgency is attached. Members of Parliament are popularly elected by universal adult suffrage for terms of 4 years, except in wartime, when terms may be extended for not more than 12 months at a time beyond the 4 years.

40. National Accreditation Board Accords recognition to an educational institution for meeting satisfactory standards in performance, integrity and quality. http://www.nab.gov.gh/

National Accreditation Board Search Home About us Board Accredited Institutions ... Skip to content Readmore STOP Welcome Message The Government white paper on the Reforms to the Tertiary Education System that was published in 1991 made several proposals for the restructuring and reorganization of Tertiary Education and Tertiary Educational Institutions. The proposals included, among others, the establishment of a Board of Accreditation to contribute to the “furtherance of better management of tertiary education” as the Quality Assurance body at the tertiary education level. Ghana has earned much international acclaim for its quality education. The birth of the National Accreditation Board as a regulatory agency of the Ministry of Education therefore is to ensure that the country’s tertiary education system continues to be responsive to a fast changing world and to make its graduates progressively competitive in the world of work. The Board has over these few years dedicated itself to facilitating the establishment of both public and private tertiary institutions and ensuring that standards are set and maintained. Today, the Board has accredited several institutions that are offering a variety of quality academic programmes for the benefit of students in Ghana. Tertiary education is emerging as an international commodity and Ghana needs to keep abreast with world trends. As a Quality Assurance body therefore, the Board engages in international collaboration and information exchange that have informed its operations.
