Abstract:
As in 2009,2010 brought ongoing challenges in the implementation of Nepal’s Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA). The Constituent Assembly (CA) was unable to meet the deadline of May 2010 for drafting the new constitution.Following a political crisis and a five day nationwide bandh(strike),a one year extension for drafting the constitution was agreed.The agreement was followed a month later by the resignation of the Prime Minister. Successive attempts to elect a new Prime Minister were unsuccessful however and at the close of 2010 Nepal still had a caretaker Prime Minister and government. Amongst others, this political instability delayed the annual budget, has contributed to a high vacancy-rate in key constitutional and other bodies (e.g.anti corruption commission, auditor general, public service commission etc.) and negatively affected the policy making process. These dynamics in turn, naturally affected the operating environment for the UN Country Team (UNCT). At the close of 2010, it remains unclear whether the revised deadline for promulgating the new constitution will be met. Debates also continue on what form the new federal Nepal might take and the implications of
this restructuring for the country as a whole, and for development assistance in particular.
