In relation to the on-going interest build-up in the advertising bill, the Minister of Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Honourable Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, met with the Council of the Advertising Association of Ghana (AAG) in her office on April 1st 2026.
The meeting of the two parties had two key purposes: for the minister and her team to align with AAG on the various steps and approaches to adopt in order to get the bill fully on track again, and for the minister to reassure the advertising industry of her commitment to see the bill through Cabinet and Parliament.
Currently the Attorney-General’s office is revising the bill to include provisions on digital advertising, which drafters of the existing bill did not consider when they drafted the bill over fifteen years ago.
