The Majority Leader, Mahama Ayariga, has said Parliament’s work in the new session will focus on translating macroeconomic stability into jobs, growth, and improved living standards for Ghanaians. He described the legislative agenda before the House as one of the most comprehensive in recent history.
Addressing Members, Mr Ayariga said Ghana had reached a point where stabilisation alone was no longer enough.
He stressed the need for deliberate policies that stimulate private sector growth, expand employment opportunities, and strengthen social protection systems.
“Economic stabilisation, while necessary, is not sufficient,” he said. “Our responsibility now is to support legislation and policies that convert stability into growth, growth into jobs, and jobs into improved living standards for our people.”
He pointed to proposed reforms in taxation, investment promotion, extractive industries, and financial sector regulation as critical enablers of inclusive growth.
According to him, these reforms would reduce the cost of doing business and attract sustainable investments.
Mr Ayariga called on Members to approach the legislative process with urgency and cooperation.
He said Ghanaians were less interested in partisan disputes and more concerned about tangible outcomes such as jobs, affordable credit, and rising incomes.
