A two-day training workshop for heads of Ministries, Departments and Agencies has commenced in Abuja.
In the current administration, the 10th Assembly is prepared to enforce compliance with legislative resolutions by government agencies and parastatals.
The ceremony is being attended by the Deputy Senate President, Jibrin Barau, the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Legislative Compliance, Garba Maidoki, the Senate Leader, Opeyemi Bamidele, and a host of others.
According to the principal consultant, Green Mount Consulting Limited, the workshop is also intended to highlight to MDAs the repercussions of disobeying resolutions validly passed by the federal parliament.
The theme of the workshop is “The imperative of legislative compliance in deepening democracy and enhancing good governance.”
Welcoming participants to the event, Senator Maidoki said the 10th National Assembly has resolved not to accept non-compliance to laws and resolutions in the nation’s political and governance system.
“If there are gaps in our laws and resolutions, they should be pointed out to us so that the right thing will be done,” he said.
