Member of Parliament for Yilo Krobo Magnus Kofi Amoatey is lamenting over the breach of 14 days usually given to MPs’ before the House reconvene from recess in an interview.
He pointed out that he got notice of the House reconvening from friends, “ordinarily by our rules we supposed to be given 14 days’ notice. I got to know just last week when I was attending a workshop at Koforidua that we are resuming today”.
According to the Yilo Krobo lawmaker, when committees want to meet messages are sent on various platforms and immediately we get them.
“Why can’t Parliament put up such a notice through our various caucuses we would have gotten it, you see the world is developing and we must develop with the world”
Maybe they left the notice in our pegging holes it is not enough, because MPs are scatted all over Ghana we are all not in Accra, some of us operate outside Accra.
So if I am unable to visit my pegging hole I will not have the notice, I was expecting it on the Television radio and newspaper, he said.
When ghanamps.com pointed out to him, according to the Majority leader it was in the papers he responded, “well I did not see it in the papers”.
