Accra, March 18, GNA
– The Registrar General’s Department (RGD) Wednesday said it has taken steps to
prevent the spread of the COVID-19 at its premises.

This is in
compliance with the President’s directive for businesses and workplaces to
continue to operate but observe the prescribed protocols to prevent the spread
of the virus.

A statement issued
and signed by Madam Constance Adomaa Takyi, Head of Public Relations, and
copied to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) on Wednesday, said hand washing
facilities had been provided to clients who thronged the premises to access
services to wash their hands with soap under running water.

‘‘The
Registrar-General’s Department wishes to inform the business community and the
general public that hand sanitisers are being provided for both staff and
clients at the front office.

“Chairs have also
been provided for clients outside the front office in order not to have more
than 25 people within the front office at a time,” it said.

It, therefore,
appealed to the public to cooperate with them as they put these measures in
place to protect the lives of staff and clients.

The statement,
however, urged clients, who wished to register, renew or file their annual
returns as well as re-register their businesses to visit www.rgd.gov.gh to download the prescribed
forms and complete them before making their way to their premises.

The statement urged
the public with any symptoms to immediately contact the emergency lines: 0552222005, 0552222004, 0509497700
as provided by the country’s health officials or visit the nearest health
centres for attention.
