Parliament has passed new legislation to help establish the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) as an autonomous entity responsible for ensuring aviation safety and security.

The new bill, the Ghana Civil Aviation Bill, 2024, repeals and replaces the existing Ghana Civil Aviation Act, 2004 (Act 678), as well as its subsequent amendments (Act 906 of 2016 and Act 985 of 2019).

When assented to by the President, the bill will provide the legal framework for the GCAA to provide air navigation services in the Accra Flight Information Region, until the new Ghana Air Navigation Services Agency is established.
