This is a result of the surge in cases of COVID-19 that has plagued some Members of Parliament and their staff.

A communication issued by the Speaker of Parliament noted that some 17 MPs have tested positive for COVID-19 while 151 staff and ancillary workers have also had their results return back as positive.

The House, according to a communication by the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin will resume business on March 2, 2021.
