This is our third ordinary session and the fourth session will be geared towards the Budget session 2023, that budget will be extraordinary because it will look into a lot of issues. I don\u2019t know to what extent the Director of Parliamentary and legislative matters whether they invite other Ministers. We cannot be talking to ourselves because they should come and listen to what the parliamentarians have to say as representatives of the populace. After all, the President\u2019s address is anchored on all the Ministries of this country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Binta Jaiteh Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
