Subjects mentioned in the Concurrent List as mentioned in my earlier post will be transferred to provinces and these subjects don’t contain such clauses which will affect the Civil Service of Pakistan. Central government is not going to surrender its authority completely, some of powers will be given to provinces. Central government already possesses the most crucial power in Federal List.

Dissolution of concurrent list will cause for some issues for example marriage in Quetta of a woman from Lahore and a man from Peshawar, if marriage becomes provincial issue after abolition of concurrent list, each province could have its own laws about marriage. In this case which provincial law would apply?

Legally where the marriage is conducted, law of the concerned province will apply. There would be severe consequences in a case if there is conservative provincial government, making own laws which will impact women badly.

con current list is removed. now provinces will have more responsibilities.
these are areas where center was bearing the burden. now on demand of provinces this has been given to provinces. this will increase responsibilities of provinces. province do not have such finance to support such areas yet. 1 july 2011 is the date given for setup and infrastructure within provinces.
but out of the new amendments a new con-current list is created which is not mentioned as such. but it exists.

@ crown prince
as far as marriage law is concerned,politicians are optimistic that shariah laws are mostly common among all provinces so it is not going to make trouble.marriage laws will apply but it will be common.
services are going to affect about 1 lac something people are going to be affected but it has not been elaborated by any politician. it is also not confirmed.

Dear All,

The Concurrent list is the list of subjects or "area of jurisdiction" that comes under both the provincial and the federal jurisdiction.

For instance i can remember the example of railways that was once in federal jurisdiction and then in provincial jurisdiction.

As said by other senior members that Pakistan is a federation with islamabad the federal center. In such a system, The center is not designed to rule the federating units but it is designed to facilitate the function of the federating units and show a common front for the national line of action. so in case if the federal capital keeps intefereing in the area of provincial list it will hinder there functioning.

One thing worth mentioning today is that people like to relate their selves to place they live in and a ruling center appears to then as an alien rule. so in order to improve the soverignity and integrity of nation and its development. it is much needed to give provinces more automony and limit the role of federal center in provincial issues.

article70(4) deals with concurrent list it is removed to ensure provincial autonomy

how many lists are there now?

federal list and provincial legislative list
or simple one list called federal legislative list?

as far as i could search there were two list: federal and concurrent.
third list named provincial list was not there in constitution as remaining subjects were automatically put under provinces which is why there were only federal list and concurrent list.

so how many lists are there now after abolition of concurrent list?

one or two?
