Berri Calls for Joint Meeting to Study Implementation of Decentralization
Speaker Nabih Berri called for a joint meeting between the Administration and Justice Committee, the National Defense Committee and the Interior and Municipalities Committee to study a suggestion to implement administrative decentralization in the country, the National News Agency reported on Friday.
Berri said the meeting will be held on Tuesday at 10:30 am and if the needed quorum was not achieved, then the committees will congregate at 11:00 am with one third of the members.
Berri had suggested during three consecutive dialogue sessions that were held early in August to create a senate and implement administrative decentralization as called for by the Taef accord.
A new dialogue meeting will be held on September 5 to continue discussions.
