A proposal that focuses on ensuring councillors only submit proposals related to issues within their own constituencies, rather than across the wider governorate, following claims of interferences and bypass has been approved by the Northern Municipal Council.
It seeks to amend the current wording of Article 73 in the council’s internal bylaws to explicitly state that councillors may submit proposals only on matters that concern the citizens of the constituency they represent, provided the issues fall within the mandate and authority of the municipal council .
