The directive came from a meeting of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Housing and Public Works in the wake criticisms of the encroachment upon the secluded premises. A three-member parliamentary subcommittee was formed at the meeting to investigate the alleged irregularities in allocating flats in the capital city to government officials during the last caretaker government. Lawmakers at the meeting also asked the authorities concerned to submit a complete report before the committee?s next meeting about plot allocation made during the last seven years. Member of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Housing and Public Works Ministry Noor-e-Alam Chowdhury apprised reporters of the move while briefing them at the Jatiya Sangsad Media Centre about the outcome of today?s meeting. Four Hundreds flats were allotted to government officials in the city? s Lalmaita and Mirpur areas, the newsmen were told. Noor-e-Alam Chowdhury said the meeting recommended bringing Cox?s Bazar tourist zone under a separate authority for its planned development to make the country?s unique sea-beach resort more attractive to tourists. He said, ?The committee suggested bringing Cox?s Bazar tourism area under Chittagong Development Authority (CDA) for the time being, until it comes under a special authority.? State Minister for Housing and Public Works Abdul Mannan Khan and committee members Abdus Sattar, Asaduzzaman Khan, Johirul Haq Bhuiyan Mohan, Nasirul Hamid, Enamul Haq and Safia Khatum were present, among others, at the meeting.
