ABSTRACT
Information management is an important element in the total development of a
nation. Although African governments acknowledged this fact little or no effort
was made in the solving of the problems of poor information management.
In Ghana, the inefficiency in the public sector could be partly attributed to poor

cannot be measured. The systems have also deprived the government agencies

be restructured and computerised in order to stimulate greater efficiency in the
formulation and implementation of govemment policies and programmes.
Proposals on the computerising of the records management systems would be
presented with recommendations that it would lead to efficiency and
