The Majority Chief Whip in Parliament, Frank Annoh-Dompreh has called on the House to name and shame ministers of state who do not honour summons from the House.
According to the legislator, the failure of ministers to appear before the House to respond to issues concerning their ministries is an unhealthy development.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Tuesday, the MP said the inability of the Transport Minister to appear before the House does not augur well for Parliamentary business.
Buttressing earlier sentiments expressed by his colleague, Minority Chief Whip, Muntaka Mubarak, Mr. Annor-Dompreh indicated his displeasure and called on ministers to be more responsive to summons from Parliament.
“I think it’s a straightforward matter, and I’m in total agreement with what my colleague [Muntaka Mubarak] said. Except to say that I think it’s high time we name and shame. We shouldn’t box all the ministers together. There are ministers who have been doing their work diligently and they take this House serious. I don’t want to mention names”, he stated.
