LAWS OF GHANA, ACTS, DECREES AND LAWS OF GHANA TEXT

We also have a complete compilation of all the Acts and Decrees which we now refer to as the LAWS OF GHANA and which include the most current Act of Ghana for the year 2022. Its use has become mandatory and that is what is to be cited in court (Laws of Ghana (Revised edition) Act 1998, Act 562 as amended by laws of Ghana (Revised Edition) (Amendment) Act, 2007, Act 729. Notwithstanding this development, it is imperative that when doing any meaningful legal research, one must compare the Laws of Ghana with the Acts of Ghana to see where the changes occurred in order to get the full meaning to the interpretation of the law. Hence the ACTS and DECREES have been captured in this compilation.

W.A.C.A. REPORT, W.A.L.R. REPORT, REPORTED JUDGMENTS OF THE GOLD COAST, WRITTEN TEXT BOOKS OF THE GOLD COAST, GHANA LAND CASES 1937 - 1955

The above-named Law Reports are considered as secondary sources but are very useful for research hence their inclusion to the software. Sometimes when conducting research, it is very important to trace the history of that case. Failure to do that makes it very difficult or sometimes impossible to fully understand the underlying issues. By reviewing the old law reports, understanding of the issues become clearer and facilitates resolution of the issue at stake.
