Taipei, Dec. 30 (CNA) The legislative caucus of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) on Wednesday voted to fine and suspend three lawmakers who defied the party last week by abstaining on a series of votes.
The votes were mainly in regard to the lifting of restrictions on imports of pork containing the controversial animal feed additive ractopamine.

Staff writer, with CNA
The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) legislative caucus yesterday imposed penalties on three lawmakers who last week abstained from a legislative vote on the importation of pork containing traces of ractopamine.
DPP legislators Lin Shu-fen (林淑芬), Chiang Yung-chang (江永昌) and Liu Chien-kuo (劉建國) were fined NT$30,000 each, and barred from running for committee membership or party leadership positions for three years for breaching party discipline, DPP caucus whip Ker Chien-ming (柯建銘) told reporters.
They have three days to appeal the decision, he added.
Lin said she “respected” the punishment, while Chiang said he “accepted” it.
