Parliament must perform role as nation’s grand inquest | The Malaysian Insight

PROHAM notes with regret that our parliament has been in abeyance for the last six months except for a few hours on May 18. It has played no role whatsoever in restoring political stability to the nation after the fall of the Pakatan Harapan government in February. Our premier legislative institution has been a bystander in the devastating health and economic crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Regrettably, except for the constituency function, parliament fails to perform the other functions satisfactorily. Reform of the law and practice of parliament is absolutely necessary to secure parliament’s independence and enhance its institutional efficacy. It is our hope that no matter who forms the government and leads the Houses of Parliament, the institutional reform of parliament will be continued with diligence and persistence.
