Duties regarding the 15th of August celebration have been reassigned from the Cabinet Division.
In a significant change to the Rules of Business, the responsibility for observing National Mourning Day on 15 August has been transferred from the Cabinet Division to a new entity known as the National Mourning Day Observance Committee.
The change, announced in a gazette, was initiated due to the President's amendment powers under Article 55(6) of the constitution. The amended Rules of Business, effective from 14 August, no longer include the provision for the Cabinet Division's responsibility in observing National Mourning Day.
The relevant entries under Item 9A of the Cabinet Division have been deleted from the amended Rules of Business, reflecting the change in duties. The Cabinet Division has taken action to reflect this alteration, issuing a gazette to announce the change.
This shift in responsibility comes after the interim government announced the cancellation of observing 15 August as National Mourning Day last year. The Cabinet Division's relief from this responsibility is also in line with the amended Rules of Business, which remove the provision regarding the division's role in the observance of National Mourning Day.
The National Mourning Day Observance Committee, established as per the amended Rules of Business, will oversee the official observance and related activities for the day. Unfortunately, specific information about this new entity and the amendment details related to 15 August National Mourning Day could not be found in the provided search results. For detailed official confirmation, it would be best to consult the latest government notifications or the amended Rules of Business documents directly.
