The National Consensus Commission (NCC) on Wednesday met experts to review recommendations on the methods and procedures for implementing the July National Charter.

The Commission has continued its talks with the experts because some suggestions-including holding a referendum on the charter rather than on the reforms agreed upon by political parties-have been discussed, but no decisions have been finalised yet.

The meeting was held in the conference room of the Commission's office at the National Parliament in Dhaka. Justice (retd) MA Matin of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court and Barrister Imran Siddique attended in person, while Justice (retd) Moyeenul Islam Chowdhury, Dhaka University Law Faculty dean Muhammad Ekramul Haque, and Supreme Court senior advocate Sharif Bhuiyan participated virtually.

During the session, various recommendations for implementing the charter were reviewed, and the experts' suggestions were discussed in detail.

According to a media statement from the Commission, members will meet on today (Thursday) to further review the recommendations and hold another session with the experts later the same day.

Commission Vice-Chair Prof Ali Riaz, members Badiul Alam Majumder and Justice Md Emdadul Haque, along with Monir Haider, special assistant to the Chief Adviser overseeing the national consensus-building process, participated on behalf of the commission.
