Guan Eng: DAP will oppose amendments to Act 342 on Monday (Dec 20)


KUALA LUMPUR: DAP will oppose the Bill to amend the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Amendment) Bill 2021 (Act 342) when it is tabled for debates in Parliament next Monday (Dec 20), says party secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.

Lim also said in a statement on Friday (Dec 17) the postponement of debating the proposed amendments to Act 342 to next Monday was "cunningly calculated to avoid any negative political impact on the Sarawak state election on Saturday (Dec 18)."
