Reform Initiated
Last Update: 30-Jul-26
On 1 December 2025, during the tenure of the Interim Government, a committee was formed comprising stakeholders. The terms of reference of the committee, formed under the representation of the Additional Secretary (Administration), included drafting the ordinance/law/rules relating to the Women’s Commission, receiving and coordinating stakeholders’ opinions, collecting the necessary information to review international experience and best practices, coordinating the report of the Women’s Affairs Reform Commission, and submitting the final draft to the Ministry. Provisions were also made for the committee to hold meetings as necessary and to co-opt new members when required. However, no information has yet been found regarding any further action taken on this matter by the new government.
Observation
-
Although the stakeholder committee was formed in December 2025, the reviewed sources do not provide publicly available information on whether it completed or reported on its assigned activities, including stakeholder consultations, preparation of draft legislation, or submission of a final draft. On 10 March 2026, the Minister of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs expressed support for establishing a Women’s Commission at a public event.
