The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has officially inaugurated all the standing and ad-hoc committees of its National Council as required by the party’s constitution.

The committees include: the Constitution and Legal Committee, the Vetting Committee, the Finance Committee, the Elections Committee, the Disciplinary Committee and the Communications Committee.

The rest are; the Organisational Committee, the Research Committee, the Events Committee, the ICT Committee, as well as the Welfare and the Dispute Resolution Committee.

They are to assume their respective roles in helping to administer the party in pursuance to the NPP constitution and applicable laws and regulations.

During the inauguration ceremony held at the Party's head office in Accra, all the persons appointed to serve on these committees were made to take the relevant oaths of office.

Mr Freddy Blay, the National Chairman of the NPP, who inaugurated the committee, explained that the members were carefully chosen on the basis of their competences and expertise in the relevant fields.

He, therefore, tasked them to work assiduously to justify the confidence reposed in them.
