Britain Gives 75 Billion Cedis Grant

Britain on Monday said she would release 7.5 million pounds (75 billion cedis) to Ghana during the later part of this year in an aid grant.

A statement from the British High Commission in Accra said the money would be targeted at the social sectors to assist Ghana in her development.

It said the release would bring Britain's total value for Ghana's budgetary support to 550 billion cedis (55 million pounds) from October last year to December.

Meanwhile the High Commission has said a trade mission from Birmingham Chamber of Commerce and Industry would visit the country from September 14 to 19 to explore business opportunities.
