Deferring second, third reading of Act 342 amendments a good move, says Lam Thye


PETALING JAYA: The decision to postpone the second and third reading of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Amendment) Bill 2021 to the next Dewan Rakyat meeting is the right choice, says Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.

The The Alliance for Safe Community chairman said that this is because it is important to not rush through some parts of the amendment, adding that it contained "controversial" parts.
