KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The Budget 2022 tabled by Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz on Friday (Oct 29) will be debated by Members of Parliament at the Dewan Rakyat beginning Monday (Nov 1).
The debate session is scheduled to be commenced by Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim after the Oral Question and Answer session, and as per convention, the second debater would be from the Government Backbenchers Club (BBC).
Based on the Parliamentary sitting calendar, Budget 2022 is scheduled to be discussed at the policy level for seven days, and will be wound up by the ministers or deputy ministers of the relevant ministries for four days before being discussed at the committee level for 13 days.
Apart from that, the focus of today's sitting would also be on the issue of whether high wage rates in Australia and South Korea are the reason why many Malaysians are willing to work illegally in the two countries.
Datuk Shabudin Yahaya (Bersatu-Tasek Gelugor) will pose the question during the Oral Question and Answer session, and he will also ask the Minister of Human Resources to state the actions taken to prevent more Malaysians from becoming forced labourers in those countries.
Questions related to vaccinations will still be entertained at the sitting as Datuk Seri Mohd Redzuan Md Yusof (Bersatu-Alor Gajah) will ask Health Minister to state in detail the safety measures taken to ensure the vaccine received is suitable for the recipient.
He also wishes to know the form of compensation received by vaccine recipients if there are side effects after being vaccinated.
Nurul Izzah Anwar (PH-Permatang Pauh), meanwhile, will ask the Minister of Health to state the Ministry's efforts to regulate all Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) DNA programmes, which are now partly run by the National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN).
She will also seek the ministry’s commitment to ensuring that all students aged 13 and 14 who missed the HPV vaccination are given the vaccine in the near future.
Issues related to Sabah and Sarawak will also be in focus when Datuk Seri Richard Riot Jaem (GPS-Serian) asks about efforts to increase the clean water and electricity supply in rural Sarawak, while Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin (BN-Kinabatangan) will raise a question on the encroachment of illegal immigrants in Sabah waters.
