Trade Minister proposes implementation of GCAP on pilot basis

The Minister of Trade and Industry, Ekwow Spio-Garbrah has proposed that the GCAP programme of the Ghana Standard Authority which is on hold should be implemented on a pilot basis. 

He said high risk goods should be targeted first, because their negative effects on human lives cannot be over emphasised. 

Mr Spio-Garbrah was of the view that the nation's human resource base must not be compromised for economic gains. 

He made the observation during a familiarisation tour of the Ghana Standards Authority Headquarters in Accra.
