“An Interaction on Inter- Governmental Coordination: Issues and Challenges” by Nepal Law Society (NLS) in coordination with the Office of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers (OPMCM)
The Nepal Law Society (NLS) has partnered with The Asia Foundation (TAF) to conduct the project" Support the Effective Local Governance Through Law Making and Service Delivery" since April 15, 2023 with the objective of supporting law-making process and judicial service delivery in Nepal.
Under this project, the NLS has been working with the Office of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers (OPMCM) to support the Inter Provincial Council (IPC) and the National Coordination Council (NCC) to fulfill their objectives as per their mandate.
The IPC and NCC are responsible for the facilitation of federalism and coordination among the federal, province and local level.
The NLS and PMO have had a series of meetings providing technical support to the IPC and NCC identifying the best way to make them more effective and functional.
In this connection, a national workshop on NCC was conducted on 28 July 2023. Key objectives of the workshop were as follows:
- To share tasks performed by the OPMCM since the promulgation of new constitution towards the facilitation of federalism,
- To share the expectations of the legislation on coordination and cooperation between three tiers of the government and its achievements and challenges,
- To facilitate dialogue and interaction between the parliament and the government on issues of coordination,
- To facilitate dialogue between NCC members and stakeholders.
