</div>On
23rd September 1998, the Commission received a petition dated 21st September
1998 from Mr. Charles Ayivor, complaining about the unfair treatment meted out
to him by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), his employers particularly
concerning his promotion to the rank of Assistant Commissioner of Taxes.<o:p></o:p>The
Respondent explained that the Complainant, as an Officer, was given every
opportunity available to any officer of his grade to enhance his status, but
the Complainant did not meet the expected standard and did not co-operate as
well.<o:p></o:p>The Complainant indicated to the Case
Officer on 30th June, 1999, that he was on retirement from the I.R.S and as
such was no longer interested in pursuing the matter. He therefore urged the
Commission to abandon the case.<o:p></o:p>The
Commission hereby ceases investigations into the matter forthwith in accordance
with Section 13 (1) (b) of the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative
Justice Act 1993 (Act 456) which states as follows:<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt;

course of the investigation of any complaint it appears to the Commission -<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt;

may refuse to investigate the matter further."<o:p></o:p>
