Auditor-General, Johnson Akuamoah Asiedu, has published an interim list of rejected and pending claims, commitments, and Bank Transfer Advices (BTAs) submitted by the Minister for Finance for verification as part of efforts to ensure transparency and accountability in the management of public funds.
The Ministry of Finance had earlier submitted to the Auditor-General all outstanding commitments, claims, and BTAs as of December 31, 2024, to be audited before any payments were made.
These claims relate to works executed and services rendered under various government projects across Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) nationwide.
According to the Auditor-General, the audit was conducted between May and October 2025 in collaboration with global accounting firms PwC and EY.
The process involved engagements with MDAs, contractors, and suppliers to verify and validate the legitimacy of the claims.
The newly published list, he explained, covers arrears and outstanding commitments that have either been rejected or remain pending further justification before payment.
The Auditor-General further announced that affected parties have the opportunity to contest or justify their claims by submitting supporting documentation through the relevant MDAs to the Ghana Audit Service for final validation.
This verification window remains open until 7th November 2025. After that date, any arrears or commitments that remain rejected or unverified will be permanently expunged from the Government’s arrears and commitment records.
