The System of Mushawarat in Jama'at-e-Ahmadiyya — Page 292
T he S ystem of M ushawarat in J ama ‘ at - e -A hmadiyya committee for Baitul Mai is presented, all its members should sit together. This w ill help the Chairman o f the sub-committee to put all the pertinent issues before them and secure their view s. In future, when the report o f a committee is being presented, all the concerned members should sit close to the stage, so that if they want to change their opinion after hearing the report, they may be able to communicate it. Another point to be noted is that when the budget sub committees are considering the proposals, a note should be sent to the concerned Nazir regarding the issues that are to be taken up by the committee, so that either the Nazir him self or his representative should attend the committee meeting and offer explanations for the pro posed increase in expenditure, and an appropriate decision can thus be reached. . . Anyhow, the sub committee has sanctioned the increase in the expenditure wherever possible. The Nazirs cannot now present the proposals that have been rejected. But if members feel that some o f the proposals made by the Nazirs were justi fied, they may suggest changes. For instance, the post o f a clerk in the office o f the Nazarat Umur ‘Amma has been rejected, which is wrong. The clerk is very much needed in that office. Similarly, if some other changes are needed, they can also be suggested by the members. They can also suggest increase or decrease in expenditure under certain heads. ” [Report Majlis-e-Shura 1944, pp. 131-133] J urisdiction of the S ub -C ommittees The sub-committees may leave the proposals o f the Agenda unchanged, modify them, or make some new 292
