The steering committee for the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on transformation and political stability is expected to meet with Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Parliament and Law) Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar this afternoon.
This is following the minister’s confirmation yesterday that the proposed anti-party hopping bill will not be tabled during the special parliamentary sitting on April 11.
When contacted by Malaysiakini, DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke confirmed the meeting will be held at 12pm today at Hilton Hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
Yesterday, Wan Junaidi reportedly told The Star that the anti-hopping bill has been sent back for more studies to be conducted on the definition of “party hopping”.
Nevertheless, the Dewan Rakyat sitting slated to be held on April 11 will still proceed, where a constitutional amendment that would facilitate the future introduction of the anti-hopping bill will be introduced.
