PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan has called on Dewan Rakyat Speaker Azhar Azizan Harun to allow more MPs to attend the upcoming special Parliament sitting and for debates to be held.
The opposition coalition is also demanding for Azhar to state if he was going to adhere to the call by the King and Malay Rulers to reconvene Parliament to debate the emergency ordinance and the National Recovery Plan – or if he was merely going “to comply with the Cabinet’s directive”.
“If he cannot do this, it is best that he resigns,” the PH presidential council said in a statement.
The statement was issued by PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, Amanah president Mohamad Sabu and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.
On Sunday, Dewan Rakyat deputy speaker Mohd Rashid Hasnon said Parliament was looking at limiting the July 26 sitting to 80 MPs.
