The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, has indefinitely postponed the resumption of the Third Meeting of the First Session of the Ninth Parliament of the Fourth Republic.
In an official notice issued on Monday, October 6, 2025, the Speaker announced that the meeting, which was originally scheduled to reconvene on October 14, has been deferred “until further notice” due to circumstances beyond my control.
The statement, released by the Office of the Speaker of Parliament in Accra, did not provide details regarding the reasons for the postponement but assured that a new date for resumption would be communicated in due course.

“Pursuant to the notice to summon Parliament dated September 29, 2025, I, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, Speaker of Parliament, hereby give notice that the commencement of the Third Meeting of the First Session of the Ninth Parliament of the Fourth Republic is deferred until further notice due to circumstances beyond my control,” the notice read.
The postponement means that parliamentary proceedings, which were expected to resume this month after recess, will remain on hold until further notice.
This delay comes at a crucial time, as Parliament was scheduled to address several key legislative and policy matters, including the presentation of the 2026 Budget Statement and Economic Policy.
