According to the group, the 12.5 percent Value-Added Tax (VAT) and the 20 percent import tax on sanitary pads had caused a significant increase in prices, making them unaffordable by many women who make up 51 percent of Ghana’s population. (CSOs, Ghana)

I stand for tax removal on sanitary pads and empowering local manufacturing companies to produce at affordable prices (Dr. Adumuah Samuel).
