A Deputy Finance Minister, John Kumah, says the government will address the initial challenges that have characterized the first day of the implementation of the widely unpopular E-levy.
The new 1.5% value tax that took effect May 1, 2022, has been fraught with a number of challenges including the non application of some exemptions from the tax.
Some social media users have for instance complained about the fact that transfers on the same or different networks or banks owned by the same user are attracting the tax although they are not meant to.
However speaking to the media, Mr. Kumah said he is aware of such challenges assuring that ”the issues will be resolved”.
He urged Ghanaians to be hopeful and positive about the possibility of the E-Levy to boost the country’s developmental process.
