SUPPLEMENT
ANSWERS TO PARLIAMENTARY QUESTIONS
*428. Mr. Speaker, on 23rd February, 2018 the Ghana Police Service, received a report of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) case against some personnel of the Ghana Formed Police Unit (FPU) 1 Detachment at Wau Protection of Civilian (POC) Camp, South Sudan from the Permanent Mission of Ghana to the United Nations. In line with UN practice in such cases, the Detachment of 46 personnel was immediately withdrawn to Juba. The Office of the Internal Oversight Services (OIOS), a UN independent body was commissioned to investigate the allegations.
In line with the Ghana Police Service’s commitment in fighting Sexual Exploitation and Abuse, related cases in the field mission, a three (3) member team of investigators was dispatched to South Sudan on 11th March, 2018 to also investigate the matter.
*429. Mr. Speaker, the Arms Trade Treaty which was acceded to and ratified by Parliament in 2015 came into force for Ghana after the 22nd of March, 2016. The implementation of the treaty requires Ghana to put in place certain measures which includes, designation of a Competent National Authority, a National Focal Point, a National Control List, strategies to prevent and address the diversion of conventional arms to unauthorized end-users, among others.
Mr. Speaker, further to this, under Articles 11 and 75 of the 1992 constitution, the provisions of Arms Trade Treaty has to be domesticated. Specifically, Ghana would have to adopt a legislation, develop rules and administrative measures for implementation. Although there are some laws on arms and ammunitions, we need to review our legislation to the UN standard.
Mr. Speaker, I wish to inform this august house that steps to implement the Treaty are underway. The Ministry is working on a Cabinet Memo on the matter for submission to Cabinet for approval.
*445. Rt. Hon. Speaker, the Builsa South District has only one Police Station located at Fumbisi which is the District Capital. Apart from the Police Station, there is no office accommodation at any of the communities within the Builsa South District ostensibly for the Police to use as a Police District or Divisional Headquarters.
Mr. Speaker, Security in general within the Builsa South District is calm apart from petty crime such as stealing of livestock. No robbery has been recorded in the District this year.
Mr. Speaker, the Police Service will consider deploying a District Commander to the Builsa South District when adequate facilities are available for the Police to use as a Police District Headquarters.
*463. Rt. Hon. Speaker, the statement from the United Nations Mission in South Sudan on the alleged misconduct involving UN Peacekeepers from Ghana and part of the Formed Police Unit has come to the attention of the Ministry. The matter is currently being investigated and in due time the outcome would be made available.
In line with the Ghana Police Service’s commitment in fighting Sexual Exploitation and Abuse, related cases in the field mission, a three (3) member team of investigators was dispatched to South Sudan on 11th March, 2018 to also investigate the matter.
Mr. Speaker, again, in line with the UN Zero adherence policy on Sexual Exploitation and Abuse, the detachment of 46 personnel was repatriated on administrative grounds to Ghana on 30th May, 2018.
Meanwhile, urgent steps are being taken by the Ministry and the office of the Attorney-General to amend the Ghana Police Service Regulations 2012 (C176) to include Sexual Exploitation and Abuse which are not explicitly captured under the current Regulations.
