SELECT COMMITTEE ON THE MAINTENANCE OF PARENTS BILL

The Leader of the House (Mr Wong Kan Seng): Mr Speaker, Sir, I beg to move,

"That Mr Koo Tsai Kee, Mr Ling How Doong and Encik Mohamad Maidin B P M be added to the Select Committee on the Maintenance of Parents Bill."

When closing the debate on the Bill, Assoc. Prof. Walter Woon proposed, and the House approved, that the Select Committee on the Maintenance of Parents Bill be made up of the Speaker as Chairman and seven other Members. However, as the Bill has provoked so much debate in this House and interest in the public, I am proposing that the Select Committee be increased by three more Members.

Sir, I beg to move.

Question put, and agreed to.

Resolved,

That Mr Koo Tsai Kee, Mr Ling How Doong and Encik Mohamad Maidin B P M be added to the Select Committee on the Maintenance of Parents Bill - [Mr Wong Kan Seng].
