KUALA LUMPUR: Eight new special select committees will be formed in Parliament to iron out any controversies or “disturbing elements” in new Bills or proposed amendments to laws before they are presented to the Dewan Rakyat.
These new committees, which will start in November if it is passed by the Dewan, will focus on fundamental liberties and constitutional rights; finance and economy; security; agencies under Prime Minister’s Office; agriculture and domestic trade; infrastructure development; education and health.
