KATHMANDU, Aug 4: Since the House of Representatives and the National Assembly are not effective, budgets worth millions of rupees have been spent on the salaries and foreign trips of lawmakers since mid-December. The main function of parliament is to monitor the government by forming parliamentary committees that formulate laws. But the chairpersons of the parliamentary committees have not been elected and the bills sent to the committees have been stalled.
KATHMANDU, July 4: The 'Finance Bill, 2080' and the 'National Debt Recovery Bill, 2080' received with a message from the House of Representatives have been tabled in the National Assembly.
