Speaker Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin has officially announced the start of the Second Meeting of the Second Session of Ghana’s Ninth Parliament under the Fourth Republic.
The announcement marks the return of Members of Parliament to their legislative duties following the previous break.
The Speaker’s Office in Accra issued a formal notification on Monday, May 4, 2026, stating that Parliament will return on Thursday, May 21, 2026.
The session will begin punctually at 10:00 a.m. at Parliament House, where parliamentarians will resume official business.
The reconvening directive was issued in accordance with Order 58 of Parliament’s Standing Orders, which oversees session scheduling and notification.
This procedural procedure guarantees that all parliamentary operations are carried out in accordance with the existing institutional and legal framework.
In order to properly prepare for the next session, Speaker Bagbin stressed that the notice functions as an official notification to Members of Parliament and pertinent stakeholders.
It also emphasises how crucial it is to be there and prepared when the House meets again to discuss outstanding issues.
It is anticipated that the Second Meeting will be essential to the advancement of legislative work, including bill consideration, policy debates, and government activity oversight.
In keeping with Parliament’s duty in accountability and governance, lawmakers will also tackle issues of national significance that demand immediate response.
The public’s attention will probably be drawn to important choices and debates that could affect the nation’s political and socioeconomic course in the coming months as Parliament reconvenes.
