Sabah’s 40% revenue rights: Sabah govt intervenes in Federal Govt appeal

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah government threw a surprise when it intervened in the Federal Attorney General's appeal against the High Court decision to grant Sabah Law Society (SLS) leave to challenge the 40% Special Interim Grant provisions.

Reporters were later told that if the Sabah Government did not intervene then there was a risk that its rights to challenge the Federal Government in respect of the 40% Special Interim Grant provisions could be extinguished without ever being heard.
