PAC recommends PM's Dept review relevance of National Professors Council

KUALA LUMPUR: The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has recommended that the Prime Minister's Department assesses the relevance of the National Professors Council (MPN) as a key driver of academic expertise in supporting the government's national development efforts.

PAC chairman Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin suggested that if the government opts to maintain MPN as a Company Limited by Guarantee (CLBG), it should fall under the Higher Education Ministry, due to its function and role.
