The government has asked
development partners to follow the law of the land on procurement to avoid
confusion.
Speaking during the
Nepal Portfolio Performance Review meeting, today, at
the Finance Ministry,
finance secretary Shanta Raj Subedi requested development partners to follow
the Procurement Act of Nepal to smoothen the procurement process. He also
requested donor-funded projects to submit the audit report of the projects as
most of them have failed to submit the reports within the given time frame.
The government is
committed to providing matching funds for donor supported projects, he said,
adding that there will also be no implementation and coordination problems for
these projects.
Representatives of
development partners presented their progress report in the meeting that was
chaired by the finance secretary. The next Nepal Portfolio Performance Review
(NPPR) meeting will be held in July.
