For them, by them

National Council may not have any powers on approving money Bills but its recommendation on the Supplementary Budget Appropriation for FY 2019-2020 split the National Assembly yesterday, almost forcing it to revert a decision it took a fortnight ago. 

On February 11, National Assembly (NA) adopted the Bill with 44 Yes and 1 Abstain out of 45 members present and voting. Yesterday, almost close to half the members present supported overturning its decision on the supplementary appropriation for the NA’s Parliamentary Committees and Secretariat Services.
