The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has emphasised the need for governance institutions in Africa to prioritise the preservation of institutional experiences and memories.
He said this is necessary for continuity while also ensuring that people have access to accurate historical facts and data.
Bagbin made the call during a courtesy call on him by a delegation from the Sierra Leonean Parliamentary Service Commission led by Hassan Abdul Sesay, opposition whip for the Sierra Leonean Parliament.
The delegation is in the country among other things to interact with their counterparts here in Ghana, learn best practice and exchange ideas, a statement from the Speaker’s office said.
The team is hoping to use this visit to create a platform for networking between the parliaments of both countries.
Cardinal among the reasons for their visit was to learn the various schemes and legislations put in place to determine the conditions of service of members retiring from parliament.
