Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad today announced the dissolution of the five government bodies and committees - the National Council of Professors (NPC), the Federal Village Development and Safety Committees (JKKKP), the Prime Minister's Department and Performance and Delivery Unit (Pemandu), the Special Affairs Department (Jasa) and Land Public Transport Commission (Spad).
He made the announcement during a press conference following the new cabinet's first meeting today.
In the case of the federal government-appointed JKKKP, the premier said the committee was also becoming too politicised and that its role could be carried out by other government offices.
Meanwhile, the responsibilities of Spad would be absorbed by transport ministry, he said.
