Mr Cyril Kwabena Oteng Nsiah, the Clerk to Ghana’s Parliament, has unanimously been elected as the Chairman for the Society of Clerks-At-The-Table (SOCATT) in Commonwealth Parliaments.

His election took place during the meeting of SOCATT at the ongoing 66th Commonwealth Parliamentary Conference in Accra.

Mr Nsiah, in his acceptance speech, expressed gratitude to his colleagues for entrusting the position to him and promised to work hard to maintain the high repute of the SOCATT.

The Society of Clerks-at-the-Table in Commonwealth Parliaments exists to provide a means by which the Parliamentary practice of various Legislative Chambers of the Commonwealth may be made more accessible to Clerks-at-the-Table, or those having similar duties, in any such Legislature in the exercise of their professional duties.

It fosters among officers of Parliament a mutual interest in their duties, rights and privileges.

The Ghana news Agency (GNA) was established on March 5, 1957, i.e. on the eve of Ghana’s independence and charged with the “dissemination of truthful unbiased news”. It was the first news agency to be established in Sub-Saharan Africa. GNA was part of a comprehensive communication policy that sought to harness the information arm of the state to build a viable, united and cohesive nation-state. GNA has therefore been operating in the unique role of mobilizing the citizens for nation building, economic and social development, national unity and integration.
