More engagement needed to ensure URA is fair, balanced, says Lee Lam Thye


PETALING JAYA: The government’s deferment of the highly-contested Urban Renewal Act (URA) will ensure the proposed law is fair and balanced through further engagement with the people, says Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.

While he praised the government’s decision to defer the Bill's second hearing in Parliament on Thursday (Aug 28), the Alliance for a Safe Community chairman said the government must use this period to refine the Bill.
