Recommendation 20 (Women) Bangladesh 2008

http://aceproject.org/ero-en/regions/asia/BD/bangladesh-preliminary-statement-parliamentary/at_download/file

Consideration should be given to changing the system for allocating the reserved seats for women so that they are not appointed but are directly elected by voters and have the same direct accountability as other members of the parliament through having a constituency to respond to. This could be achieved by establishing a separate layer of larger constituencies for this purpose. Eligibility criteria and nomination procedures for the reserved seats should be the same as that of the non-reserved seats. This will require a Constitutional amendment.
