The Members of Parliament on the Minority side of the House are presently in the chamber after a few hours of absence.

Earlier, Minority side of Parliament were absent in the chamber as Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam is set to deliver the 2024 Mid-Year Budget Review in Parliament today.

It is unknown the exact reason for the delay by the Minority Members of Parliament but sources say the leadership of the Minority had to meet with the other side to negotiate on some issues.

But presently, both the Majority and Minority side are in the chamber for the presentation.

This marks Dr. Amin Adam's debut budget presentation since his appointment to the role in February 2024.

The presentation of the budget review will adhere to Section 28 of the Public Financial Management Act, 2016 (Act 921), which mandates an update on the government's fiscal performance and revised financial projections halfway through the fiscal year.

Dr. Amin Adam's presentation will provide an assessment of the implementation of the 2024 Budget, highlighting progress and adjustments needed.

Additionally, he will offer an updated economic outlook for Ghana, which will include revised financial plans aimed at addressing the current economic conditions and challenges facing the country.
