Azalina queries move to stop Parliament committees’ activities

PETALING JAYA: Deputy Dewan Rakyat Speaker Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said (pic) has questioned the rationale for not allowing Parliament’s committees, including the Special Select Committees, to conduct their activities as this prevents lawmakers from looking into issues affecting Malaysians.

The Pengerang MP also suggested that Attorney General Tan Sri Idrus Harun consider advising for the suspension of duties of the current Cabinet and replace this with the appointment of a Special Emergency Cabinet comprising only relevant ministers throughout the Emergency period.
