Parliament reconvenes to complete business
December 14, 2020 Prof. Mike Oquaye
Parliament will today reconvene for the final lap of the third meeting of the fourth session as it prepares to be dissolved early next month.
The meeting, which commenced on Tuesday, October 6, 2020, was suspended on Saturday, November 7, for Members of Parliament (MPs) to round-off their campaigns for the general election held on December 7.
A notice of resumption issued by the Speaker of Parliament, Professor Aaron Mike Oquaye, on November 30, said the House would resume sitting “notwithstanding anything to the contrary.”
The recall is in pursuant to Parliament’s Standing Order 6, which provides that “in all cases not provided for….Mr Speaker shall make provisions as he may deem fit.”
