What does it do?

  • The Rules set up an Industrial Revival Fund to identify industries that became 'sick' because of the internal conflict but could still run commercially, and to revive them. Money comes from the Government of Nepal, Nepal Rastra Bank, banks and financial institutions, entrepreneurs who want revival, and other sources. At the start, half of the money needed comes from the Government and the other half from Nepal Rastra Bank and commercial banks. It runs as a revolving fund.आन्तरिक द्वन्द्वका कारण रूग्ण भएका तर व्यावसायिक रूपमा चल्न सक्ने उद्योगको पहिचान र पुनरुत्थान गर्न यो नियमावलीले औद्योगिक पुनरुत्थान कोष खडा गर्छ। कोषमा नेपाल सरकार, नेपाल राष्ट्र बैङ्क, बैङ्क तथा वित्तीय संस्था, पुनरुत्थान चाहने उद्यमी र अन्य स्रोतबाट रकम आउँछ। सुरुमा चाहिने कुल रकमको आधा नेपाल सरकारले र बाँकी आधा नेपाल राष्ट्र बैङ्क र वाणिज्य बैङ्कहरूले दिन्छन्। कोष आवर्ती कोषका रूपमा चल्छ। Nepal Law Commission Rule 3(1)-(4), PDF p. 2
  • Fund money may be spent only on studies to identify sick industries, on reviving the industries those studies identify, and on other revival work the committee sets. It cannot be used for donations, prizes, gifts, grants or any other financial help except on matters linked to reviving sick industries.कोषको रकम रूग्ण उद्योग पहिचान गर्ने अध्ययन अनुसन्धान, त्यसबाट पहिचान भएका उद्योगको पुनरुत्थान र समितिले तोकेका अन्य पुनरुत्थान कार्यमा मात्र खर्च हुन्छ। रूग्ण उद्योगको पुनरुत्थानसँग सम्बन्धित विषयमा बाहेक चन्दा, पुरस्कार, उपहार, अनुदान वा अन्य कुनै आर्थिक सहायता दिन कोषको रकम खर्च गर्न सकिँदैन। Nepal Law Commission Rules 4-5, PDF p. 2
  • A committee runs the Fund. It is chaired by an expert the Government appoints and includes representatives of business, banking and small-industry associations, Nepal Rastra Bank and the finance and industry ministries. It identifies sick industries and their causes, sets criteria for financial and non-financial help, monitors revived industries, and coordinates closing those that cannot be revived.कोष सञ्चालन समितिले चलाउँछ। नेपाल सरकारले नियुक्त गरेको विज्ञ अध्यक्ष हुन्छन् र नेपाल उद्योग वाणिज्य महासङ्घ, नेपाल उद्योग परिसङ्घ, नेपाल बैङ्कर्स सङ्घ, साना तथा घरेलु उद्योग सङ्घ, नेपाल राष्ट्र बैङ्क, अर्थ मन्त्रालय र उद्योग वाणिज्य तथा आपूर्ति मन्त्रालयका प्रतिनिधि सदस्य र मुख्य प्रशासकीय अधिकृत सदस्य-सचिव हुन्छन्। समितिले रूग्ण उद्योग र रूग्णताको कारण पहिचान गर्छ, वित्तीय तथा गैरवित्तीय सहयोगको मापदण्ड बनाउँछ, पुनरुत्थान भएका उद्योगको अनुगमन गर्छ र पुनरुत्थान हुन नसक्ने उद्योगको खारेजीका लागि समन्वय गर्छ। Nepal Law Commission Rules 6-7, PDF pp. 3-4
  • A sick industry that wants revival must submit a proposal to the Fund secretariat in the format the committee sets. A technical committee, led by a banking expert the committee nominates, studies and evaluates the proposal and sends a report with its recommendation to the committee. The technical committee also prepares the criteria for deciding when an industry is sick and what help it needs.पुनरुत्थान चाहने रूग्ण उद्योगले समितिले तोकेको ढाँचामा कोषको सचिवालयमा प्रस्ताव पेस गर्नुपर्छ। समितिले मनोनयन गरेको बैङ्किङ विशेषज्ञको संयोजकत्वमा रहने प्राविधिक समितिले प्रस्तावको अध्ययन र मूल्याङ्कन गरी सिफारिससहितको प्रतिवेदन समितिमा पेस गर्छ। रूग्णताको मापदण्ड र दिनुपर्ने सहयोगको किसिम पनि प्राविधिक समितिले तयार गर्छ। Nepal Law Commission Rules 9-10 and 12, PDF pp. 5-6
  • The Fund keeps accounts under the Government's accounting system and is audited by the Auditor General. The committee must send an annual performance report to the Ministry of Finance within three months after the fiscal year ends. The Fund lasts until the Government dissolves it by a notice in the Nepal Gazette on the committee's recommendation; any money left then goes to the body the Government names.कोषको लेखा नेपाल सरकारको लेखा प्रणालीअनुसार राखिन्छ र लेखापरीक्षण महालेखापरीक्षकबाट हुन्छ। समितिले आर्थिक वर्ष सकिएको तीन महिनाभित्र वार्षिक प्रतिवेदन अर्थ मन्त्रालयमा बुझाउनुपर्छ। समितिको सिफारिसमा नेपाल सरकारले नेपाल राजपत्रमा सूचना प्रकाशित गरी खारेज नगरेसम्म कोष कायम रहन्छ; खारेज हुँदा बाँकी रकम सरकारले तोकेको निकायमा जान्छ। Nepal Law Commission Rules 15, 17 and 20, PDF pp. 6-7
