This is based on a Motion moved by Hon. Tiya Galgalo in July, 2013.The Committee notes that a draft policy and a Cabinet Memo have been developed towards the establishment of the National Disaster Management Authority. However, we have noted that there has been a delay occasioned by a proposal to merge the policy with the National Drought Management Authority. As we speak right now, I would like to update the report which was tabled in April but we have had a number of actions which have been coming subsequently."}
