A special committee of the Bangladesh Parliament has recommended blocking 20 of the 133 ordinances issued during the interim government period, citing lack of legal basis. Among these, three ordinances related to judicial independence are proposed for cancellation. The committee also advised against presenting 16 ordinances, including those on referendum, the National Human Rights Commission, and enforced disappearance prevention, as bills in the current session. If not approved by April 12, these ordinances will lose effect. Committee chair Zainul Abedin presented the report in Parliament on Thursday.
According to the report, 16 ordinances are recommended for later review and strengthening before reintroduction, while four are proposed for repeal, including those concerning the Supreme Court Secretariat and judge appointments. Opposition members in the committee issued notes of dissent regarding the cancellation and amendment recommendations. The remaining 113 ordinances are recommended for presentation as bills—98 unchanged and 15 with amendments, though specific amendment details were not disclosed.
The committee’s recommendations mark a significant step in determining which interim government ordinances will transition into permanent legislation before the April 12 deadline.
