Members of Parliament return to their makeshift House at the Dome of the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) for a sitting today, Wednesday, December 18, 2024.<\/p>\n

The Minister of Finance, Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam, is expected to lay the expenditure in advance of appropriation for the first quarter of 2025 before the House.<\/p>\n

This is after President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, in a formal communication to the House, submitted budget estimates for the first quarter of 2025 for the Judiciary and Judicial Service, Audit Service, and Parliament and Parliamentary Service.<\/p>\n

The submission of estimates is in accordance with the 1992 Constitution and is due to the fact that the budget for 2024 has not been passed by Parliament, which was supposed to be done before the end of November 2024.<\/p>\n

The House is also expected to consider bills, including those for the approval of loans and tax exemptions, before it.<\/p>\n
