What does it do?
- The Act set up the National Reconstruction Authority to rebuild, quickly and in a durable, resilient and planned way, structures damaged by the earthquake of 12 Baisakh 2072 and its aftershocks, and to resettle displaced people. The Authority had a five-year term, extendable by one year, or its work could be handed to other bodies; the Act itself stays in force only while the Authority's term lasts.२०७२ वैशाख १२ को भूकम्प र त्यसपछिका पराकम्पबाट क्षतिग्रस्त संरचनाको दिगो, बलियो र योजनाबद्ध पुनर्निर्माण यथाशीघ्र गर्न र विस्थापितको पुनर्वास गर्न यो ऐनले राष्ट्रिय पुनर्निर्माण प्राधिकरण स्थापना गरेको हो। प्राधिकरणको कार्यावधि पाँच वर्ष थियो, जुन एक वर्ष थप्न वा यसको काम अन्य निकायलाई सुम्पन सकिन्थ्यो; ऐन आफैँ पनि प्राधिकरणको कार्यावधि कायम रहेसम्म मात्र बहाल रहने व्यवस्था छ। Nepal Law Commission, Government of Nepal Preamble; Section 1(3), p. 1; Section 3, pp. 2–3
- The Authority could assess damage, recommend which areas count as earthquake-affected, set reconstruction priorities, approve projects, budgets and timelines, acquire land, plan integrated settlements and house pooling, stop or direct construction to required standards, order unsafe structures removed (at the owner's cost, or at public cost for the poor) and mobilise NGOs, the private sector and communities.प्राधिकरणले क्षतिको यकिन गर्ने, भूकम्प प्रभावित क्षेत्र तोक्न सिफारिस गर्ने, पुनर्निर्माणको प्राथमिकता तोक्ने, आयोजना, बजेट र कार्यतालिका स्वीकृत गर्ने, जग्गा प्राप्ति गर्ने, एकीकृत बस्ती र हाउस पुलिङको योजना बनाउने, मापदण्डअनुसार निर्माण गर्न आदेश दिने वा रोक्ने, जोखिमयुक्त संरचना धनीकै खर्चमा (विपन्नका हकमा सरकारी खर्चमा) हटाउन आदेश दिने, र गैरसरकारी संस्था, निजी क्षेत्र तथा समुदाय परिचालन गर्ने अधिकार पाएको थियो। Nepal Law Commission, Government of Nepal Section 4, pp. 3–5
- A National Reconstruction Advisory Council, a Steering Committee chaired by the Prime Minister and an Executive Committee led by a Chief Executive Officer governed the Authority, with district coordination committees. A Reconstruction Fund, which cannot be frozen, receives government and donor money and may be spent only on reconstruction; the Authority must hold public hearings and publish reports, and appeals against its decisions go to the High Court.राष्ट्रिय पुनर्निर्माण परामर्श परिषद्, प्रधानमन्त्रीको अध्यक्षतामा निर्देशक समिति र प्रमुख कार्यकारी अधिकृतको नेतृत्वमा कार्यकारी समितिले प्राधिकरण चलाउँथे, र जिल्ला समन्वय समिति रहन्थे। रोक्का गर्न नमिल्ने पुनर्निर्माण कोषमा सरकारी र दातृ रकम रहन्छ र पुनर्निर्माणमा मात्र खर्च गर्न पाइन्छ; प्राधिकरणले सार्वजनिक सुनुवाइ गरी प्रतिवेदन सार्वजनिक गर्नुपर्छ, र यसका निर्णयउपर उच्च अदालतमा पुनरावेदन लाग्छ। Nepal Law Commission, Government of Nepal Sections 5–12, pp. 5–11; Sections 15, 23–26, pp. 12–16
