Dr. Zanetor Agyemang Rawlings, a member of the ad hoc committee from the Minority side of parliament, has requested that members of the committee adhere to the established procedures for the committee's meeting.

The MP claims that KT Hammond and other members' interruptions are preventing the proceedings from moving further.

She stated that the custom is unjust and impedes the sitting's natural flow.

“Co-Chair, normally when we sit in a committee, you must actually address the chair and have permission from the chair before you speak. I think it’s unfair that we just keep interjecting. We ask questions and we don’t let the witness continue and we keep interjecting without seeking permission to have the opportunity to interrupt. We are creating too much of an issue with that,” she said during the sitting.

The second sitting of the ad hoc committee probing the allegations in a vote of a censure motion against the embattled Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, has commenced today November 17, 2022.

The 8-member ad hoc committee was made of Members of Parliament elected by the leadership of both sides of the House.

The Public Interest Accountability Committee (PIAC) and the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) have appeared before the committee of Parliament.

Their main task is to probe the seven allegations contained in the censure motion filed late last month by Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu, which motion is seeking the removal of Ofori-Atta from office.

However, the Finance Minister is expected to appear before the committee on November 18, 2022.
