Art. 103 · Part 8

Conduct of Business in Committee

समितिमा कार्य सञ्चालन
Original Text

Committee meetings require a quorum, proceedings are governed by rules, and committees may examine witnesses, require documents, and submit reports to Parliament.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

Committee rules: they need quorum to operate, can call witnesses (including ministers and officials), demand government documents, and must submit formal reports to Parliament. Committee reports can trigger parliamentary debates, investigations, or even impeachment proceedings. A strong committee system is the engine of parliamentary accountability.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

समितिले साक्षी बोलाउन, कागजात माग गर्न र संसदमा प्रतिवेदन पेश गर्न सक्छ।

✅ Strengths

Empowers committees to be genuine oversight bodies with investigative teeth.

⚠️ Concerns

Governments with large majorities can stack committees with loyal MPs, weakening scrutiny.
