Permanent Pak-Afghan jirga to be formed
2007-08-21
Pakistan and Afghanistan have agreed on a bilateral mechanism to facilitate the implementation of decisions and recommendations made at the Pak-Afghan Joint Jirga held in Kabul from August 9 to 12.

The fifth working committee of the jirga agreed on forming a permanent jirga. The committee was assigned the task to make both countries agree on "a bilateral mechanism comprising of an adequate number of members from each side to meet periodically to facilitate the implementation of decisions and recommendations made by the jirga and discuss any other related issue". The committee recommended a practical strategy for the implementation of decisions and their monitoring by both the governments and the media. It suggested involving tribal elders from both sides and exchange of information. The committee also decided that it would meet after every two months.
