Government Oversight Committee 5th Meeting of 2025

29 Apr 2025 Number M20/M/SM/2025/05

Summary

The first thing that was discussed in today's meeting was the issue regarding the registration of vehicles and policies formulated by the Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation regarding vehicle registration. Once the Chairman opened the floor for discussion, two proposals were submitted.

1.  As Regulation No 2025/R-34 (6th Amendment to the Motor Vehicle Registration Regulation) partially provides a remedy to the vehicle registration issue, Ihavandhoo Constituency Member Ahmed Naseer proposed to review the issue for later date. (The motion did not proceed to a vote as it did not receive any support from other members.)

2.  As Regulation No 2025/R-34 (6th Amendment to the Motor Vehicle Registration Regulation) partially provides a remedy to the vehicle registration issue, Felidhoo Constituency Member Adam Zahir proposed to close the issue submitted to the Committee. This proposal was seconded by West Henveyru Constituency Member Ali Ibrahim.

The proposal was passed unanimously.


Next, the Committee discussed an issue that raised concerns regarding overtime payment policies and emphasized the need to conduct a human resource audit to address these matters. The issue also highlighted concerns about the quality of healthcare service providers and the importance of identifying systemic issues within the healthcare system to provide effective solutions to these problems. After discussion, Ihavandhoo Constituency Member Ahmed Naseer proposed to send a letter to the relevant institutions to obtain information regarding the matter. This proposal was seconded by Dhidhdhoo Constituency Member Abdul Latheef Mohamed.

The proposal was passed unanimously.


Lastly, the committee proceeded to issue submitted concerning hazardous incidents occurring in areas frequented by tourists, particularly in protected marine parks, as well as the lack of monitoring in the South Ari Protected Area (SAMPA). After deliberation, Felidhoo Constituency Member Adam Zahir proposed sending a response letter to the member who raised the issue, based on information obtained from the Ministry of Tourism and the Ministry of Environment. This proposal was seconded by West Henveyru Constituency Member Ali Ibrahim.

The proposal was passed unanimously.
