According to him, the House can only be strengthened when the Leadership of Committees are strong.
Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu suggested the decoupling of the Legislature from the Executive.This he noted is one of the ways, ”to enhance the public’s trust in Parliament and ensure strict separation of powers”.
