Debate rages over whether PAC can continue 1MDB investigation

KUALA LUMPUR: As the new ministers and deputy ministers took their oaths before the King, debate raged over whether the ongoing Public Accounts Committee probe into 1MDB can continue uninterrupted.

Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker Datuk Seri Ronald Kiandee said the present structure of the PAC “does not reflect the composition of the political parties in the Dewan Rakyat” after four Barisan Nasional members of the committee had to vacate their posts.
