The second week of the Dewan Rakyat sitting saw the motion on the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia Annual Report and Financial Statement for 2021 and 2022 being passed after 16 ministries completed their winding-up speeches on the motion.
Meanwhile, four bills were tabled for the first reading during the week, including the Drug Dependants Bill 2024 by Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. At the sitting, Saifuddin Nasution also provided clarification on the 2024 Trafficking in Persons Report issued by the United States Department of State and the government’s effort to elevate Malaysia’s position to Tier 1 in the report next year.
Anwar said this was based on KIGIP’s location near Technical and Vocational Education and Training institutions and the Giat MARA Training Centre.
