dc.description | This book is a study of the committee system of the National Assembly in the
Fourth Republic, with particular reference to the performance of legislative
functions from 2003-2013. The book focuses on the performance of legislative
oversight functions of the National Assembly through the mechanism of the
Committee system. This is in recognition of the significance of legislative
oversight as a core responsibility of the legislature. Legislative oversight refers
to the review, monitoring and supervision of the government and public
agencies, including the implementation of policy and legislation. It involves
keeping an eye on the activities of governmental agencies especially the
executive branch on behalf of the Nigerian people. This process brings to the
knowledge of the public what the executive branch is doing, and allows the
electorate to determine whether public servants are serving their collective
interest or not. | en_US |
