A three-member sub-committee has been formed to avoid repetition and duplication of work in implementing digital activities of the Parliament.
This decision was taken on Tuesday at the first meeting of the “e-Bangladesh Parliament” project implementation committee held at the National Parliament.
Chaired by the committee chairman and Deputy Speaker Kayser Kamal, the meeting held detailed discussions on various aspects of the project with the aim of making parliamentary activities modern, dynamic, and technology-based.
The sub-committee has been constituted to thoroughly examine and submit a report on whether there is any repetition or duplication of work, including sound systems and other activities under the project.
Comprising committee members Sayeed Al Noman, Luthfullahel Mazed, and Anna Minj, the sub-committee has been assigned the task of reviewing relevant project matters and presenting a report with necessary recommendations to the main committee.
Considering its international acceptability and familiarity, the meeting also decided to change the project’s name from ‘e-Parliament’ to ‘e-Bangladesh Parliament’.
The meeting was attended by committee members Whip A.B.M. Ashraf Uddin (Nizan), Nayab Yusuf Ahmed, Sayeed Al Noman, Hummam Quader Chowdhury, Mohammad Najibur Rahman, Akhtar Hossain, Lutfullahel Majed, and Anna Minj.
Relevant officials from the Secretariat of the Bangladesh Jatiya Sangsad and representatives from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) were also present at the meeting.
