Parliamentary Chamber Undergoing Major Renovation €2.26million Euros | Parliament


The leadership of Parliament will have to look for a temporary venue to host the 275 members of Parliament when the House reconvenes on September 3, 2024.

This is because the main chamber of Parliament is undergoing a major renovation.

The Majority recently requested for a recall of the House to deal with pertinent government business which constitutionally mandates the Speaker to heed to the call.

But following the refurbishment of the chamber, the Speaker is expected to meet with the leadership to decide on a venue while hoping that the chamber will be ready by October for the third meeting.

“I can decide to host them under a tree or even take them to Ho or elsewhere,” the Speaker said jokingly when he inspected the progress of work within the chamber on Friday [August 23, 2024].

Arrangements 

The seats and equipment in the chamber have all been removed to allow for an upgrade of the conference system.

And in doing so, the old cables which have been in existence since 2014 are being changed.

“The average lifespan of such cables is between 10 and 15 years,” the Acting Director of ICT in Parliament, Lesley Addico, who took the Speaker round on Friday said.
