A prominent advocate for the Promotion of Proper Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill, Sam Nartey George, has expressed confidence in the potential passage of the Bill by March 2024.
Often referred to as the anti-gay bill, the legislation seeks to criminalize same-sex relationships, including oral and anal activities, proposing penalties ranging from five to 10 years of imprisonment.
In an interview on Eyewitness News at Citi FM, the Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram shared insights into the bill's current status, highlighting ongoing amendments with inputs from various stakeholders.
"They are almost 60% done with consideration. Hopefully, there will be another two weeks of parliamentary work when we resume, and they should be done with consideration. The third stage of reading is just a procedural thing. It is read, and then the bill is passed," George explained.
Providing a timeline for the potential passage, George stated, "In fact, during the first session of the meeting we are about to start, we believe that in the first session, which is going to run from the 6th of February to the end of March or early April, I believe that we should pass the bill before Easter. I think it is something we should give as an Easter gift from parliament to the nation. So we would strive to work with the speaker and the committee chair."
