NRSA set to pass on its work to Prayut

NRSA set to pass on its work to Prayut

The National Reform Steering Assembly (NRSA) will hand over its work to Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha on Monday ahead of its being dissolved. 

NRSA chairman Tinnapan Nakata and Prayut will co-chair the handover ceremony at Parliament. 
At the ceremony, Tinnapan will present a report to the premier, who will then give a speech on national strategies, reform and development. 
All the so-called “rivers” of reform - the National Council for Peace and Order, the Cabinet, the NRSA, the National Legislative Assembly and the Constitution Drafting Commission, including 900 concerned officials - will attend the event.
The NRSA had its last meeting last Tuesday. 
The terms of its members expire when the bill on plans and procedures for national reform is promulgated. 
Once the bill is published in the Royal Gazette, the NRSA will be replaced by national reform committees working in 11 areas.
NRSA vice chairman Alongkorn Ponlaboot said the body has presented more than 190 reform reports covering all topics on the reform agenda, such as political, public administrative, economic and social reforms.
All of the reform imperatives are designed to improve the country’s competitive edge, lift living standards, ensure equality and equity, and attain sustainable growth, Alongkorn said. 
Alongkorn said almost 70 per cent of the NRSA’s proposals focused on “fixing” what is broken, with 20 per cent focused on building up existing strengths and 10 per cent centred on creating something new.
