‘BN will take on six Bersatu seats if vacated’

BAGAN DATUK: Barisan Nasional would try to wrest back the six parliamentary seats held by Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia if they are declared vacant, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.“We will discuss this with the unity government leadership to decide on it if the vacancies occur,” he told reporters after attending the Northern Corridor Economic Region mini showcase programme here yesterday.

However, he said he believed that Parliamentary regulations and the Federal Constitution do not provide for the six MPs to be stripped of their seats despite efforts by Bersatu to declare their seats vacant.
