JUBA – South Sudan’s Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) adjourned its session on Monday to discuss the Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission’s (RJMEC) quarterly report regarding the implementation of the 2018 peace deal, due to the absence of the commission’s representatives.

The body monitoring the 2018 peace deal in April tabled its first quarterly report to the Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) on the progress made in the implementation of the peace agreement.

The report raised concern over the little progress related to making the permanent constitution and activating electoral processes.

The report to be presented by Bona Deng Lawrence, Chairperson of the Standing Specialized Committee on Peace and Reconciliation, Legislation, and Justice, was deferred due to the absence of key members of peace monitoring bodies.
