Intra-Governmental Relationships in Sudan
The Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) of 2005 has given rise to a number of new constitutions across Sudan - at a national, regional and state level - as well as bringing about a number of ministerial changes in both Khartoum and Juba. In many cases the division of constitutional competence and ministerial responsibility remain poorly defined.
The content of this paper reflects the presentations and discussions which took place at a Concordis consultation held in Khartoum in March 2006, entitled Intra-Governmental Relationships in Sudan. The goal of the consultation was to discuss and galvanise support for policy initiatives that would both improve relationships between the different spheres of government in Sudan and help to facilitate a federal system of government under the new arrangements inaugurated by the CPA.
