Honorable Secretary of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly
Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Secretariat
Peshawar

Respected Secretary,
We, the citizens of Pakistan, strongly demand that the Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa makes public the attendance record of its Members in line with the principles of openness, transparency and public accountability. This is also in line with the spirit of the available constitutional and legal provisions that seek to protect the right to information.
Citizens have a right to know the performance of their representatives, including their attendance in the House as well as the Standing Committees of the provincial Assembly in order to make rational political and electoral decisions. Such information helps develop a culture of accountability, which is a cornerstone of democratic governance.
The Senate, the National Assembly and the Provincial Assembly of the Punjab have already set the good example of providing the citizens about the attendance on a daily basis. The Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa should also follow the suit and immediately makes the attendance record of its Members public through its website and other public communication mechanisms as a step towards improved transparency.

Speaker, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly
