The
\n Chairman of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Environment, Science,
\n Technology and Innovation Yaw Addo Frimpong has called on political
\nleaders and all stakeholders to support the Jospong group of companies.<\/p>\n

The
\n Manso-Adubia MP praised the Group for its immense investments into the
\nwaste management, environmental and sanitation industry in Ghana.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

The
\n MP who could not hide his excitement during a joint Select Committee
\ntour of the Integrated Recycling and Compost Plant (IRECOP) and Sewerage
\n Systems Ghana Limited which are all subsidiaries of the Jospong Group
\nof Companies in an interview with journalists underscored the need for
\nall stakeholders to rally behind Jospong to help grow other waste
\nmanagement companies to solve Ghana\u2019s sanitation challenge.<\/p>\n

The
\n joint select committee made up of Sanitation and Water Resources,
\nEnvironment, Science and Technology, Local Government, Works and Housing
\n are touring major waste management facilities and landfill sites across
\n the country to ascertain their conditions after the recent intermittent
\n fire outbreaks at the Kpone landfill which have become a public health
\nthreat.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

Hon. Frimpong also proposed a small increment in the Value Added Tax (VAT) to help finance waste management in the country. <\/p>\n

\u201cI
\n am proposing that if we add some small percentage on the VAT for
\nsanitation, I don\u2019t think any Ghanaian will kick against that idea,\u201d he
\nstated.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

The
\n General Manager of IRECOP, Betty Brown Nyadu who conducted the MPs
\nthrough the workflow of the IRECOP technology in an interview indicated
\nthat the facility charges very little which is far below the World Bank
\nrecommended a fee of $30 for managing a ton of waste. The tipping fee we
\n charge is so little that it does not cater for our operational cost\u201d,
\nshe pointed out.<\/p>\n

She was hopeful that government will intervene to make waste management more sustainable and effect.<\/p>\n
