PSC proceedings not open to public, says Speaker


PETALING JAYA: Parliamentary select committee (PSC) proceedings, including the one scheduled for Wednesday to discuss the share ownership controversy involving the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief, will not be opened to the public, says the Dewan Rakyat Speaker.

Tan Sri Azhar Azizan Harun explained that this was due to all proceedings of select and other committees being subject to provisions of the Standing Orders, which he said barred open proceedings.
