EMOTIONS ran high again on the second day of the special Parliament meeting after Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan did not explain the sudden revocation of the Emergency Ordinances on July 21.
Yesterday, Opposition MPs demanded that Takiyuddin explain whether or not the Yang di-Pertuan Agong had consented to the revocation of the Emergency Ordinances.
In response, Takiyuddin said he could only give his answer on Monday, in line with the ruling by Speaker Datuk Azhar Azizan Harun that he explain issues connected to the Emergency Ordinances on that day.
“So, I humbly pray that everyone be fair with the government. I have been ordered to explain the Emergency Proclamation next Monday and that is all I ask,” Takiyuddin said, triggering shouts of disapproval from several MPs.
KUALA LUMPUR: Questions on the revocation of the Emergency Ordinances - including whether it has the King s consent - will be answered next Monday, says Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan.
Takiyuddin said based on a ruling by Speaker Datuk Azhar Azizan Harun on Monday (July 26), he is bound to answer such questions next Monday.
Opposition leaders then engaged in a short shouting match with Deputy Speaker Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said briefly in the morning.
The shouting match began right before Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba was scheduled to brief the House about the government s action plan on Covid-19, when Gobind Singh Deo (PH-Puchong) interjected and raised a point of order.
