• “ownership”
.
We
need
to
clarify
who
qualifies
to
own
media
in
Ghana.This
they
contend
is
necessary
to
forestall
“foreign
elements”
using
the
lax
regulatory
system
to
establish
media
houses
for
propaganda
purposes;
• As
a
country
we
also
need
to
address
the
content
profile
of
the
media.
Stakeholders
noted
that
this
became
very
evident
during
the
December
7,
2008
elections
where
there
was
low
content
of
voter
education
by
media
houses;
• We
also
need
to
address
the
issue
of
ethics
and
culture.
We
need
a
clear
definition
of
what
“nudity”,
“profanity”
are
and
determine
the
acceptable
levels
of
such
by
rating
media
content.

Fighting
corruption
in

sphere

Coordination
of
anti-‐corruption
agencies
Government
is
yet
to
develop
a
strategic
framework
to
promote
synergy
between
the
various
institutions
fighting
corruption
in
the
country.
There
are
no
official
channels
set
up
to
coordinate
anti-‐corruption
institutions
(Serious
Fraud
Office,
Commission
for
Human
Rights
and
Administrative
Justice,
Auditor-‐General’s
Department,
Financial
Intelligence
Unit
of
the
Ghana
Police
Service,
Attorney-‐General’s
Department,
Parliament,
etc).
The
coordination
challenges
were
highlighted
with
the
passage
of
the
Whistleblower
��Act
where
as
many
as
eighteen
organizations
and
institutions
are
mandated
to
implement
it.
Over
the
last
year
the
Ghana
Integrity
Initiative
(GII)
created
a
platform
for
anti-‐corruption
agencies
to
share
information
and
experiences
in
the
work
they
have
been
doing.
Hitherto,
the
Centre
for
Democratic
Governance
embarked
on
a
research
to
find
out
if
anti-‐corruption
agencies
found
the
need
to
work
together
to
enhance
the
anti-‐corruption
process.
The
outcome
indicated
that
most
institutions
were
of
the
view
that
this
was
important
and
would
give
members
an
opportunity
to
share
ideas
on
how
they
would
need
to
collaborate
in
implementation
of
the
various
Acts
and
also
to
avoid
duplication
and
efficient
utilization
