Shorttitle The most central activity of any state is the raising of tax revenues in order to achieve fiscal policy objectives of matching expenditure and reducing budget deficit.The Government of Ghana in the quest to mobilise more revenue introduced the Value Added Tax in March 1995, but had to withdraw it barely after three months of operations as a result of public outcry against the tax.
