Wan Junaidi was responding to Gobind Singh Deo , who interjected and asked about whether the government has plans to make it a criminal offence for MPs who party hop.Wan Junaidi said a draft would take time, given the intricacies of the matter. "Please, because the motion just came in, I have discussed with the Attorney General and this government is only three weeks old.Wan Junaidi also assured MPs that he will not bulldoze any Bill in the House and he is looking forward to discussing the new law with all MPs.
