Agenda issues
Role of MAB
1.Should be a brainstorming body for exchange of experience and cannot exercise regulatory functions 2.It must be forum for sharing of experience and development of national strategies 3.The debates in MAB may be recommendatory in nature and not binding (or else it will affect the autonomy of metro corporations) 4.There can be sub committees for specific subjects
Regulatory Clearances
1.Success of DMRC is due to freedom to choose technology and minimal intervention 2.MoR/RDSO roles must be to set standards and safety audit 3.Standards set must be aligned with relevant international standards (UIC, EN, CENELEC, NFPA, etc.). This will enable better competition and more choice in vendors 4.Technology choice, design, FAI/FAT, vendor approvals, etc must be left to owner operators in compliance with standards set. 5. Time limits to be set for processing regulatory approvals to avoid cost escalation
Indigenisation
1.Indigenisation is supported subject to compliance with international standards and safety norms 2.Equipment majors shall be given a target of indigenisation as part of the contract so that they take responsibility for vendor development and standardisation 3.ICF makes metro coaches that are much less expensive (Rs 3.5 cr as against Rs. 8 to 10 cr from imtl mfrs) but not to international standards. MoR to invest in raising standards of ICF metro coaches so that they can act as a competitor
