LEGAL SERVICES, SMEDA


The Legal Services (LS) department is a part of Business & Sector Development
Services Division of the Small Medium Enterprises Development Authority and plays
a key role in providing an overall facilitation and support to the small businesses. The
LS believes that information dissemination among the small businesses on the
existing legal & regulatory environment and business to business and business to
client contracting is of paramount importance and plays a pivotal role in their
sustainable development.

In order to facilitate small businesses, the LS, under the Pro-GOLE (Right to do
business) project, a joint SMEDA-UNDP initiative for supporting the small businesses,
has developed user-friendly contract templates.

Pro-GOLE, (Right to do Business)


The UNDP has partnered with the Small and Medium Enterprises Development
Authority to initiate and execute the Pillar 4 (Right to do business) component of the
UNDP PRO-GOLE project which seeks to enhance the legal awareness and mobility of
marginalized/ informal businesses. Under the project legal services outreach shall be
extended to small businesses including home based enterprises, small shopkeepers,
growers, women entrepreneurs, hawking vendors etc. In addition, small business
shall be mobilized to access legal services.

The Need for Commercial Contracts Templates


In an increasingly complex and competitive industry, it is vital that suppliers and
purchasers are fully protected against legal and commercial risks. To counter such
risks, a viable solution; available as- of the shelf commercial contract templates- will
provide the users with first class ready to use support. With obligations properly set
out and liabilities accurately defined, the users will be in a far better position to look
after their rights and interests and move forward from their marginalized positions to
being active players of the economy. The Legal Service Providers can equally take
benefit of these templates for their professional and business development.
