Parliament passes National Service Authority Bill 2024

On Tuesday, July 9, the National Service Authority Bill 2024 was passed by parliament.

The National Service Authority is to be established by the bill.

It was a unanimous decision by the house to grant autonomy to the national service, as TV3’s Komla Klutse reported from Parliament.

Speaking to the media about this development, Osei Assibey Antwi, the Executive Director of the National Service Scheme, stated that, with parliamentary permission, national service will no longer be the same as it was in the past.

“If you have a vibrant youth, if you have a youth that has a future, if you have a youth that knows where they are going, if you have a youth that has the policy to guide them, especially at this time that the current management and the board have now moved into a new direction called deployment for employment. This deployment for employment can only be enhanced with this current backing.”

He added “Now, Parliament has given us autonomy, an authority vested with powers in areas where it will enhance entrepreneurship.

“With this current status, NSS can work to achieve a lot of internally-generated funds to reduce the burden on the central government, and we know the President will assent to it to give it the finality.”
