Consensus on reform: CA to hold all-party meeting in mid February

Chief Adviser Dr Muhammad Yunus will hold the first meeting of the National Consensus Commission with the political parties in the middle of February.

The meeting will discuss the reform proposals recommended by the six reform commissions, said Law Adviser Dr Asif Nazrul at a press briefing on Tuesday.

He said that the reform proposals of the six commissions will be made public on February 8, and on the same day, the tenure of the commissions will end.

 “On the same day we shall send the recommendations of the commissions to all the political parties who supported the July mass upsurge,” he added.

The reform proposals will be finalised through consensus among the political parties, and based on this consensus, an electoral roadmap will be determined, he added.

Headed by the chief adviser, the National Consensus Commission was formed recently to create consensus among the stakeholders and political parties on the reform proposals.

Responding to a question he said that the  reform proposals of the constitution commission will also be determined through consensus, he added.

Press Secretary to the Chief Adviser Shafiqul Alam moderated the briefing.
