The National Development Planning Commission (NDPC) will monitor the implementation of Ghana's new economy programme, valued at $10B. According to Dr. Ato Forson, the Finance Minister, the NDPC's role will be critical to the programme's success. The commission will track and assess the programme's progress as it is rolled out.

The programme aims to move beyond economic stabilisation towards increased production, job creation, and wealth generation. Dr. Forson stated that the goal is to build an economy that creates jobs, generates wealth, and grows on the strength of what Ghana produces. The full details of the New Economy programme are expected to be unveiled in the 2027 budget.

The NDPC's involvement was discussed during an engagement with its leadership on September 7, 2026. MyJoyOnline Ghana reported that Dr. Forson described the commission as an important stakeholder, and its role will be to monitor progress and assess the status of the programme.
