Forensic scientists from the Ghana National Fire Service have begun investigations into the cause of fire at the job 600 building within the premises of Parliament. All activities in the building that serves as the administrative wing, thus houses offices of the parliamentarians were brought to a halt, because of the fire outbreak, which started from the storeroom for archive materials. The Government Assurance Committee was meeting with the Works and Housing Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, when the fire started. The outbreak occurred around 9:45am, compelling staff and Members of Parliament to rush out of their offices to the open space between the administration block and the Job 600. It took three tenders and firemen about an hour and a half to douse the fire.
