The Parliament of Ghana says in consonance with the 1992 Constitution and the Standing Orders, it is going through the processes that govern the presentation of the budget and economic policy of the government for the year 2022, as provided for in Chapter 13 of the Constitution.
According to Parliament, as is common in all Parliaments, these processes are sometimes characterised by disagreements but usually, the House is able to come to some agreement.
In a statement signed by the Public Affairs Directorate, it said "The events that have characterised the scrutiny of this particular budget is no exception"
The statement added that the Rt. Hon. Speaker, being fully aware of the national nature of the budget and the need to do what is best for the entire citizenry, is committed to ensuring that Parliament conducts its business with this in mind.
Parliament says it will like to assure citizens that allegations of bias are unfounded and should not be entertained.
