The Third Parliament of the Fourth Republic of Ghana on Tuesday reconvened for its second meeting of the second session of its four year life which ends in 2004.
The 200 members have tabled 202 questions to be answered by Ministers of State. According to the agenda for the meeting, 10 bills including the Value Added Tax (Amendment) Bill would grace the floor of Parliament while six Legislative Instruments would be considered.
The House, which was short of one seat for some time after the resignation of Dr Mohammed Ibn Chambas, former Member for Bimbilla, is now full. The replacement is Mr Dominic Nitiwol, a 25 years old teacher.
Mr Peter Ala Adjetey, Speaker, said he had high hopes for the meeting. He appealed to members to always endeavour to reach consensus on issues and avoid acrimony and mistrust.
