Parliament will resume sitting on Thursday, May 21, 2026 following a directive by the Speaker, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin.

A notice issued on Monday, May 4, 2026, from the Office of the Speaker asked Members of Parliament to reconvene for the Second Meeting of the Second Session of the Ninth Parliament of the Fourth Republic.

The notice was issued in line with Order 58 of the Standing Orders of Parliament, which gives the Speaker the authority to summon the House.

Parliament has been on recess since March 27, 2026, when the First Meeting of the Second Session adjourned sine die after eight weeks of sittings. During that period, the House held 32 sittings and passed a number of bills.

The break coincided with the Easter season, allowing members to return to their constituencies.
