Implementation of the decisions taken at the Deputy Commissioners’ conference in 2014 scored almost in full in all areas of development across the country, as announced officially here yesterday.
“Ninety three per cent of the decisions, taken in the Deputy Commissioners’ (DCs) conference last year, was already implemented,,” Cabinet Secretary M Musharraf Hossain Bhuiyan said at a press briefing here yesterday.
This year’s three-day annual Deputy Commissioners (DCs) conference is to be inaugurated on Tuesday at 10-00 am at the Shapla Hall of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is expected to inaugurate conference, to be followed by an open discussion at the conference room of the Prime Minister’s Office. The Cabinet Secretary said the DCs would exchange their experience, ideas and important issues in the conference and implement the government policies at the field level across the country.
“In 2013, 92 per cent decisions of the government was implemented, while 91 per cent was implemented in 2012, Bhuiyan said quoting from an official documents.
He said the government had also attached quality service component to the public offices so that people can easily get better service from the good governance.
“The DCs will take part in the discussion on as many as 253 proposals from 39 ministries during 18 working sessions out of the total 22 sessions in three days,” Bhuiyan said.
As the government decisions are being implemented in haste, he said, the number of proposals devised by the DCs is reducing gradually year after year.
The Deputy Commissioners will also call on President Abdul Hamid on July 29 at Bangabhaban. The conference is a two-way communication between the government policy makers and the field level administration.
Officials told BSS that the working sessions would be held at the Cabinet Division conference room with Ministers, Advisors to the Prime Minister, State Ministers and also the concerned officials present on the occasion. “Any Deputy Commissioner or Divisional Commissioner can put forward any proposal at the conference for taking due measures, but the concerned ministry will be responsible for scrutiny,” the cabinet secretary said.
Each session will be held with the concerned minister as the chief guest while the DCs will put forward their performance on the government’s development works.
Important issues to come up during the discussions include land management, law and order, local government institutions, disaster management, relief and rehabilitation activities, local-level employment generation and implementation of poverty reduction programmes, social safety net, information communication technology and e-governance, quality education, healthcare and family welfare, environment protection and pollution prevention and development activities.
