Opposition parties insist on Shahbaz's name for PAC chairman

[SunilM]

ah, as if we don’t have enough conspiracy theories on this forum!!

 

[Menace2Society]

A corrupt individual soon to be jailed will preside over cases of this government think about it for a minute

I think its a bad decision from IK, it sets a bad precedent, Showbaaz has so many criminal enquiries against him, you don't want a thief to scrutinise public accounts committee. If Showbaaz has any grace he should rightfully decline to head PAC, but these status quo are too damn shameless.

PTI chairman(will head subcommittee pretending to PMLN cases) will audit that though a man who is facing severe corruption charges must not chair any committee, as a matter of fact, but that is how things works here.

Master stroke played by Imran Khan as asad umar mention they have to get approval for Saudi invesestment from parliament by next week.

Now if pmln dosnt make parliament functional it will be their fault and all blame goes.to them

If they reject Saudi investment all blame goes.to.them

If they approve it credit goes to PTI for bringing investment in country.

PM concedes PAC chairmanship to Shahbaz 'in larger interest of democracy', Qureshi tells NA

Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi announced in the National Assembly on Thursday that Prime Minister Imran Khan has decided to not stand in Leader of the Opposition Shahbaz Sharif's way if he wants to head the Public Accounts Committee (PAC).

"We met Prime Minister Imran Khan today on the issue of PAC chairmanship," Qureshi said. "We had offered the opposition to nominate any person other than Shahbaz Sharif but they did not budge.

"Imran Khan has reviewed his decision and if Shahbaz Sharif wants to head the PAC, the government will not obstruct.

"In the larger interest of democracy and in order to make the parliament functional, we concede to the opposition's demand."

The development is a major breakthrough as the impasse between the government and opposition parties over PAC chairmanship had hampered legislative proceedings.

Opposition lauds PM's 'most positive U-turn'

Sharif credited the PM that "on our request he has agreed to review his stance", noting that "the government wants to make this parliament functional as it wants to bring important legislation for the welfare of the people."

PML-N leader and former NA Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq felicitated the prime minister and termed the decision as his "most positive U-turn".

"If he continues to take such U-turns, democracy will be strengthened," he said.

PPP leader and former prime minister Raja Pervez Ashraf acknowledged NA Speaker Asad Qaiser's efforts "for playing a positive role" in the resolving of the PAC chairman issue.

Ashraf also lauded the government for reviewing its decision, adding that "after four months, this house will become functional".

"Hopefully, the parliament will now carry out legislative business," he said.

The PAC is the apex parliamentary watchdog that oversees the audit of revenue and expenditure by the government and it is considered to be the most powerful and important committee of the parliament. Previously, the PAC comprised only members of the National Assembly, but recently members of Senate have also been made part of it.

Though there is no restriction on the government in the rules to give the chairmanship of the PAC to opposition parties, it has been a parliamentary practice and tradition that the office is given to an opposition member to ensure transparency in financial matters.
