Kathmandu. Interaction on interagency cooperation, coordination and feedback has been concluded. An interaction program on cooperation, coordination and feedback between the agencies related to regulation and supervision, law enforcement and prosecution for promoting financial good governance was held in Kathmandu on September 20.
Governor Prof. Dr. Bishwanath Poudel presided over the program and Attorney General Dr. Narayan Dutta Kandel was the chief guest of the program.
Governor Poudel said that financial governance is a matter of common concern of all agencies including the Rastra Bank. There may be differences in understanding from agency to agency on the same issue
That’s why such interactions are important, he said.
Stating that access to the state power is ultimately linked to the control and ownership of the resources within the country, Governor Poudel stressed the need for the state agencies to be alert so that the resources do not reach the hands of wrong people or institutions. He expressed the view that the ‘approach of the entire government mechanism’ should be adopted for this and after determining such a common direction, each agency would be automatically active within its working area.
Addressing the program, Attorney General Dr. Narayan Dutta Kandel conducted a study at the ministry level on the problems and reforms seen in the existing laws
.
Stating that the amendment process has been forwarded, he said the Office of the Attorney General would play an active role in the efforts against financial crimes.
