Article quoting sources on LCS probe violates Standing Order, says PAC chairman


KUALA LUMPUR: The article quoting sources on the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) probe into the littoral combat ships (LCS) project violates Standing Order 85, says Datuk Mas Ermieyatie Samsudin.

The PAC chairman said that it views the June 12 article seriously, adding that Standing Order 85 states that any evidence brought before a Select Committee "shall not be published by any member of that committee or by anyone else until the committee presents that statement to the House."
