Report by Committee of Inquiry Looking into MRT Train Breakdowns in December 2011

Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Transport (a) when will the report of the Committee of Inquiry (COI) looking into the December 2011 MRT train disruptions be released; (b) whether the full transcripts of the COI proceedings will be released to the public; and (c) whether the Government will table the report as a motion for debate in this House.

Mr Lui Tuck Yew: Sir, the Committee of Inquiry submitted its report to me on 3 July 2012. The report, which does not contain the full transcripts of the proceedings, was made available to the public on 4 July via the Ministry of Transport's website. Copies were also given to the media. I will deliver the Government's response in a Ministerial Statement in Parliament. Members may seek clarification on the issue at that time.
