PETALING JAYA: MPs should be allowed to debate at the special Parliament meeting starting July 26, says Pakatan Harapan's presidential council.
In a joint statement, the council said that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong had issued a statement on June 16 stating his view that Parliament should reconvene as soon as possible so MPs can debate the Emergency Ordinances, National Recovery Plan and government spending related to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The King also expressed the same sentiment on Feb 24 and June 29.
"His Majesty's vision is the same as the rakyat's aspirations who want to see an end to Covid-19 and the current economic challenges faced by the country," the Pakatan presidential council said in a statement on Sunday (July 18).
