SUSPENSION OF SITTING

Mr Wong Kan Seng: Mr Speaker, Sir, as Members would know, the Prime Minister had said recently that he would be making a statement on the purchases of the HPL properties by Senior Minister and DPM BG Lee. The Senior Minister has told me that he is still recovering from jet lag and it takes a while for his bio-rhythm to get adjusted. He would like to be present when the PM makes his statement. That being the case, Sir, may I propose that we take a short suspension and resume the sitting at 3 o'clock.

Mr Speaker: Order. I suspend the Sitting and will take the Chair again at 3.00 pm.

Sitting accordingly suspended at 1.53 pm until 3.00 pm. Sitting resumed at 3.00 pm
