Guan Eng urges govt to clarify Constitutional Amendment Bill on Parliament’s cards tomorrow

SHAH ALAM, March 20 — Opposition lawmaker Lim Guan Eng wants the government to clarify if it will be amending the Federal Constitution to enable the creation of a new law other than the much-touted anti-party hopping Bill, which has been put on hold.

“We want to get some clarification. There is some confusion in the statement made by Wan Junaidi, that the constitutional amendment is different, but then there is in the Order Paper on Monday which states that the Constitution Amendment Bill will be tabled for the first reading tomorrow. The former finance minister added that any amendment made to the Federal Constitution must be discussed with the Opposition, as stated in the MoU.

Wan Junaidi said in a statement last Friday that the government is postponing the anti-party hopping Bill and its plan to limit the prime minister’s tenure to two-terms.
