Parliament has by majority decision passed the Emissions Levy Bill which will among other things; charge all petrol and diesel car owners 100 cedis every year beginning in January 2024.
The government is introducing this new tax bill in Parliament with the aim of promoting the use of eco-friendly sources of energy to power vehicles.
The initiative is part of the government’s drive towards more climate-positive actions and to offset its carbon output.
However, the Minority in Parliament opposed the passing of the bill.
