The Ninth Parliament has wrapped up its second meeting of the first session, with reflections on both accomplishments and challenges.
Addressing MPs in a closing statement delivered on his behalf by First Deputy Speaker Bernard Ahiafor, Speaker Alban Bagbin commended members for their display of bipartisanship, describing it as a rare demonstration of national unity in service of the public good. "This meeting has demonstrated what is possible when we work together, transcending partisan interests to serve a better good," Bagbin said, urging lawmakers to continue fostering consensus and cooperation.
Over the course of 43 sittings from May to August 2025, Parliament passed eight out of 13 bills, including the Ghana Medical Trust Fund Bill and the University for Development Studies Bill.
Additionally, 497 questions were filed, with 297 answered-signalling active legislative oversight.
