KUALA LUMPUR: Government backbenchers have hit out at Opposition MPs for not being present during the debate on the Auditor-General’s Report 2021 Series 2.
Bangi MP Syahredzan Johan said it was disappointing to see the absence of Opposition MPs, claiming that he saw many still walking outside the Dewan Rakyat while proceedings continued.
“If the government wants to take a further step and debate this, the Opposition should support it and not boycott the session,” Syahredzan told a press conference at Parliament on Tuesday . Tebrau MP Jimmy Puah Wee Tse said there were no provisions in the Federal Constitution or Dewan Rakyat Standing Orders stating that such reports could not be debated.
