islamabad - The Senate Standing Committee on Law & Justice Tuesday expressed its indignation and concern over rampant anomalies in recruitment, appointment and promotion laws of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and constituted a three members subcommittee to review the entire recruitment laws.
The committee headed by Senator Farooq Hameed Naek would have Senator Nehal Hashmi and Senator Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif as members. Senior Draftsman Ministry of Law and Justice Sarfraz Sheikh would assist the committee on legal issues. The committee has been mandated to revisit NAB laws relating to recruitment and report within a month.
The committee deliberated the issue raised by Senator Saeed Ghani in the Upper House of the Parliament regarding the charges were given to various officers of NAB, in violation of rules, and reappointment of same officers on the same day, in the own pay scale.
Senator Farooq H Naek said the NAB had framed recruitment, promotion and appointment laws sans getting approval and consent of the Parliament. Chairman NAB Qamar Chaudhry, enjoying arbitrary powers, is running the one man show.
