On 14th November 2022, the Regional minister Henry Quartey delivered a lecture on the topic: “Responsibilities of REGSEC, MUSEC, and DISEC” at the Buchaman Hall, Army Training Command, Whistler Barracks, Teshie, to some Senior Military Officers.
The topic chosen by the Army Combat Training School for their second edition of the Battalion Commanders Course 1, was aimed at appraising them on the Responsibilities of REGSEC, MUSEC, and DISEC.
As has been their norm, the Training school annually selects the official adjudged the best in their field of endeavour for that particular year as the resource person for the special course for the Senior Military Officers.
The minister elucidated the composition of REGSEC, MUSEC, and DISEC, and their main functions as stipulated in the Security and Intelligence Agencies Act 2022, Act 1030.
He also expounded on the functions of a Regional Security Council in a region, which are to provide early warning signals to the Government on the existence or likelihood of a security threat within the region, the country or the Government; take appropriate measures, in consultation with the National Security Council, to ensure peace in conflict areas in the region; take measures to ensure peacebuilding, unity and stability in the region; take immediate steps to ensure law and order and assist the affected population in the event of an emergency or a disaster in the region, and perform the functions of the Council assigned to that regional security council by the National Security Council.
Mr Henry Quartey further responded to several practical questions asked by the senior military officers.
