Hasmy: Reinstating pre-legislative scrutiny a good proposal


"Such a process will contribute towards a more inclusive and efficient parliamentary system."

Its chairman Tan Sri Hasmy Agam said the proposal by Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Nancy Shukri was timely as there was a compelling need for instituting a pre-legislative scrutiny of Bills involving the establishment of parliamentary or select committees.
