The Municipal Chief Executive, Vincent Antwi Agyei, disclosed that the Assembly has commenced procurement processes to facilitate the acquisition of items and support services for eligible persons with disabilities in the municipality.

He assured that the Assembly would soon distribute the procured items and other forms of assistance to deserving beneficiaries in line with the objectives of the fund, which is aimed at improving the living conditions and economic well-being of persons with disabilities.

According to him, the Assembly is committed to ensuring that the funds are put to good use and that the intended beneficiaries receive the necessary support to enhance their livelihoods, promote their independence and improve their participation in community development.

Mr. Antwi Agyei made this known when the Sunyani Municipal Assembly appeared before the Parliamentary Select Committee on Local Government and Rural Development in Accra.

The engagement provided an opportunity for the Assembly to brief the Committee on issues relating to local governance, the utilisation of public funds and the implementation of development programmes, including interventions aimed at supporting vulnerable groups in the municipality.

The allocation forms part of the statutory support provided through the District Assemblies Common Fund to assist persons with disabilities and promote their inclusion in the social and economic development of their communities.
