The issue of LGBTQI+ activities has been in the news lately following the submission of the anti-LGBQTI+ to Parliament by some MPs.
The controversial anti-LGBT bill has been topical, with various groups that are in support of the bill touting it as one that reflects the views of the majority of Ghanaians on the subject, while the groups against the bill described it as one that is in breach of human rights and against Ghana’s cultural values.
Meanwhile, the Constitutional, Legal, and Parliamentary Affairs Committee of Parliament considering the bill has temporarily suspended its public hearings on the over 150 Memoranda received on the bill.
The Committee is expected to give audience to the authors of the memoranda on the Promotion of Proper Human Sɛxʋal Rights and Ghanaian Family Values bill.
Closing the first session of public hearings on Thursday [November 11, 2021], Chairman of the Committee, Kwame Anyimadu-Antwi, cited time constraints as the reason for the suspension of the hearings.
“We haven’t finished with the public hearings. There are other memoranda that we have received, but we are constrained with time, and we cannot predict what time we would have to meet and continue,” he said.
