LIVESTREAMED: 2nd day of debate on SoNA

This was the 40th Sitting of the 1st Meeting of the 2nd Session of the 8th Parliament.

Among other things, some sector ministers including the Miniter for Health, Minister for Water and Sanitation and Minister for Roads appeared before the house to answer questions on happenings in their sectors. The house also continued the debate on the 2022 State of the Nation Address (SoNA).

During the 39th Sitting of the house, a lot of issues were raised on the record of attendance of Members of Parliament during the passage of the E-Levy Bill with some members of the minority caucus alleging that the clerk of Parliament deliberately marked some members of the minority caucus absent.

Also, the house was expected to touch the assenting of the E-Levy Bill Ghana's President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, despite the fact that the minority caucus has filed a suit to overturn the passage of the bill in the Supreme Court.

The Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Andrew Amoako Asiamah, presided over the house.
