Accra, March 4, GNA - Parliament is expected to adjourn sine die on March 30 instead of March 25 2011 in order to deal with the rest of the agenda on government business, Mr Cletus Avoka, Majority Leader, said on Friday in Parliament.

Reading the business statement of the week to the House, he said sittings of the House would also be extended beyond the prescribed period when necessary during the week.

Members adopted the statement and continued with proceedings which included six questions to be answered by the Minister of Food and Agriculture and an urgent question meant for the Minister of Roads and Highways.

told the GNA that the upcoming conference of Society of

Clerks will be attended by Clerks from commonwealth
