Law Event

Training on law making process held

The Legislative and Parliamentary Affairs Division of Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs has been consistently working not only to assist the government in its law making and reforming procedure but also to incorporate well accepted principles of law making which are acclaimed throughout the world. These actions necessarily involve arranging consultation meetings and sensitisation workshop and training on the legal reform processes of Bangladesh.
In continuity of these endeavors a Training programme on Law Making Process was organised by this division on 28th March, 2013 at Hotel Ruposhi Bangla. The Training session was conducted by the Secretary of Legislative and Parliamentary Affairs Division, Mohammad Shahidul Haque. 34 officers, who are closely related to law making process of 17 different ministries, participated in the session. This is the Fourth and concluding training programme of the series on law making process of Bangladesh which has been started since 1st quarter of 2012.
With the discussed successful training programme, a number of 123 senior officials from 51 Ministries/agencies of the country have received the necessary understanding of Law making process. The legislative and parliamentary Affairs division with assistance of Promoting Access to Justice and Human Rights in Bangladesh Project organised this series of training on law making process of Bangladesh.
The series of training immediately served valuable understanding of the law making process and insights of procedural issues of legislative reform to the executives of different ministries/divisions who are involved in the process. In coming days, this series is expected to have substantial impact in framing of a Legislative Calendar which will better guide the Ministry of Law as well as all other Ministries/Divisions to efficiently coordinate the legislative proposition/reform process.
