Dewan Rakyat approves motion on A-G's first report for 2026


KUALA LUMPUR: The Dewan Rakyat today passed the motion on the Auditor-General’s Report (AG’s Report) 1/2026 on the Financial Statements of Federal Agencies for 2024, which revealed 273 new issues involving financial management and governance at the federal and state levels.

The motion, tabled by Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said, was approved by a majority voice vote after being debated by 35 MPs.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof, when winding up the debate on the motion for the Prime Minister’s Department, said the government confirmed that the Lot 61 Bangsar Development Project, which was delayed by 1,731 days and saw a significant increase in costs, had now received conditional approval for a partial Certificate of Completion and Compliance (CCC) for the operation of its parking facility.

He said the conditional approval for the Pelaburan Hartanah Berhad (PHB) project was received yesterday and was still awaiting confirmation and official approval from the Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s one-stop centre.

"The increase in construction costs occurred because the scope of the project expanded compared with the original approval, including the addition of parking components, part of Tower 3, as well as infrastructure works such as an underpass,” he added.
