Parliament is set to resume today, Tuesday, June 11, for the second meeting of the Fourth Session.
On March 20, 2024, Speaker Alban Bagbin abruptly adjourned the House after addressing a letter from the Presidency that cautioned against transmitting the Human Sexual Rights and Family Values Bill, commonly referred to as the anti-gay bill, to the President for approval.
On May 3, 2024, the Majority Caucus petitioned the Speaker to urgently reconvene Parliament to address key government business items. These include the adoption of the Thirty-Fourth Report of the Appointments Committee and a motion on additional financing.
Responding to this petition, the Office of the Speaker issued a letter recalling Members of Parliament from recess, with proceedings set to commence today.
