Ayariga reaffirmed Parliament’s readiness to partner with the executive arm of government in delivering on development pledges.
“Parliament—the people’s Parliament—stands fully prepared to back your agenda for economic growth and equitable job creation,” he assured.
He also announced that parliamentary committees will actively engage with ministries and enterprises to design targeted interventions and ensure accountability.
“Our committees will collaborate with sector ministers and the enterprises within their jurisdictions to identify issues, recommend solutions, and ensure implementation. We will monitor these ministers closely to ensure they fulfill the commitments made to the Ghanaian people,” he added.
Concluding his remarks, Ayariga stressed that Parliament will play an oversight role in supporting enterprise incubation and nationwide business development.
“Parliament will ensure that efforts to incubate and grow enterprises across the country are fully realized,” he stated.
