Opposition Chief Whip Christopher Jones has raised concerns over meetings not being held by the parliamentary sectoral committees.

He told the National Assembly last week Monday during the 2024 Budget Debate that the parliamentary committees play a crucial role in enabling the thorough examination of government policy and administration.

According to Jones, it is disheartening and unacceptable that parliamentary committees, including sectoral committees are inactive or are yet to be established even as they enter the fourth year of the 12th parliament.
