Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin has revealed that the ongoing renovation works on the Parliamentary Chamber will cost the government of Ghana approximately €2.26 million. Parliament went on an indefinite break at midnight on July 30 to speed up work on the renovation project, which is expected to last around three months. On Friday, August 23, the Speaker conducted a tour of the Chamber to inspect the progress of the work. Parliament undergoing renovation
During his visit, Alban Bagbin outlined some of the challenges facing the House, including issues with voting, quorum, and malfunctioning audiovisual systems. He recalled that in 2014, Bosch DICENTIS Multimedia Company was commissioned by former Speaker Doe Adjaho to transform the House into an E-Parliament, a move aimed at reducing costs associated with bulk printing, paperwork, and other related expenses.
