Parliament is expected to reconvene today September 3, 2024, at 10: am following a recall by the Speaker, Alban Bagbin for an emergency meeting.
The decision follows a petition from the Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, who expressed the Majority caucus’ dissatisfaction with the Speaker’s move to adjourn the session indefinitely on Tuesday, July 30, 2024.
The agenda for the emergency sitting includes discussions on the Financing Agreement between the Government of Ghana and the International Development Association, requests for tax exemptions for beneficiaries under the One District, One Factory Programme, matters concerning the Ghana Financial Stability Fund, and the consideration of several bills.
Meanwhile, the Speaker has designated the Dome at the International Conference Centre as the venue for Parliament.
The change in venue is due to ongoing repairs at the main chamber for the 9th Parliament, which will not be completed in time for the recall.
