]]> Parliament has appointed a 20-member committee to act as the emergency committee of selection, for the 7th parliament of the 4th Republic.

The mandate of this committee is to compose the various standing and select committees of Parliament so that the work of committees in the House can begin in earnest.

The Majority Leader, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu on the floor of Parliament, explained that “the committee of selection cannot procreate itself, so it was important for leadership to constitute that committee in consultation with the Speaker.”

The 20-member committee of selection will be chaired by the Speaker of Parliament, Aaron Michael Oquaye.
