ISLAMABAD, Oct 28 (APP):Speaker National Assembly Sardar Ayaz Sadiq Tuesday underscored the need to prioritize the completion of 104 family suites for parliamentarians, stressing that the project must be executed with utmost transparency and efficient utilization of public funds.
“Ensuring the best use of national resources is a collective responsibility, and all concerned departments must work diligently to avoid further delays,” he expressed these views while chairing the meeting regarding the oversight of the construction of the 104 family suites in Parliament House, Islamabad, today.
The Speaker NA said that the construction of these family suites is aimed at addressing the acute shortage of official residences for Senators and Members of the National Assembly.
He noted that the growing demand for accommodation has created difficulties for parliamentarians, and the timely completion of this project would significantly ease the pressure on existing housing facilities.
Expressing concern over the repeated delays in the project, Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq pointed out that such postponements have resulted in a substantial increase in the overall cost.
He remarked that unnecessary delays not only burden the national exchequer but also erode public trust in development initiatives. Speaker NA directed the concerned authorities to identify and remove all administrative and technical hurdles hindering the timely completion of the project.
Ayaz Sadiq further emphasized the importance of maintaining high construction standards and ensuring proper ventilation in all residential units.
He instructed that all essential facilities must be incorporated during the design and execution phases to provide a comfortable living environment for future residents. He reiterated that no compromise should be made on quality, safety, or transparency at any stage of the project.
Deputy Speaker National Assembly Syed Ghulam Mustafa Shah was also present on the occasion.
The meeting was attended by senior officers from the Capital Development Authority (CDA), the Senate Secretariat, and the National Assembly Secretariat.
The participants reviewed the progress of the project in detail and discussed strategies to accelerate its completion in line with the directives of the Speaker National Assembly.
