Three-day orientation programme for new MPs next weekNewsAn orientation programme for newly elected Members of Parliament will be held in Committee Room No. This programme has been organized this time as well, as it is traditionally done at the beginning of a new Parliament. During this three-day programme, necessary arrangements have been made to educate MPs with regard to the role and responsibilities of a Member of Parliament, Parliamentary Privileges, Legislative Process in Parliament, Parliamentary Committee System, Standing Orders of Parliament, and the provisions of the Constitution. Arrangements have also been made to hold a practical session for Members of Parliament to vote using the electronic voting system. The heads of departments and offices of Parliament are also scheduled to inform the Members of Parliament about the tasks related to their respective departments.
