Parliament is expected to begin considering memoranda it has received from the public on the Anti-Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex (LGBTQ+) Bill this week.
The Bill, also known as Proper Human Sexuality and Ghanaian Family Values Bill, is now before Parliament’s Committee on Constitutional, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs.
According to Deputy Majority Leader Afenyo-Markin, the committee has received 150 memos from individuals, groups, churches among others.
He explained that the committee would consider and work on ten petitions on daily basis and would use 15 weeks for the consideration.
He disclosed these when he presented the Business Statement for the third week, on Friday, November 12, to the House.
“It is important that all those who brought the memoranda are heard by the Committee,” he added.
