Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo Markin has revealed that Parliament will meet after 3 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
This change comes in response to the Minority’s decision to boycott sessions on days their leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has court appearances.
Dr. Forson is on trial for his alleged role in a failed ambulance deal when he was Deputy Finance Minister.
Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo Markin believes that the new arrangement will benefit all.
“Mr. Speaker, there is an arrangement that on Tuesdays and Thursdays we sit after 3 pm. As a result of that, questions will receive written answers, which answers will be published for members, so that arrangement is in place.
“So no member will lose an opportunity to have answers to questions because of the late sitting.”
