National Assembly housing committee defers meeting due to minister absence
The National Assembly Standing Committee on Housing and Works deferred its 13th meeting in Islamabad on Monday because the Minister and Secretary were absent.
Meeting postponed without key officials
The committee expressed concern over the non-submission of required compliance reports and incomplete information provided by the ministry. Officials directed the Ministry to submit all outstanding compliances and verified responses before the next session.
Committee seeks better coordination
Members emphasized improved communication to facilitate meaningful deliberations and effective parliamentary oversight during future gatherings. The group also noted that PWD employees in the Surplus Pool should be considered for adjustment against available positions in PIDAMA.
New hiring needs more time
The committee observed that inducting new employees would require additional time for orientation and familiarization with duties. This observation applies to the recruitment process while existing staff adjustments are prioritized.
